to be able to define the necessary processes and procedures for designing and producing of
Microelectronics and Mechathronics devices.
DESCRIPTION OF THE COURSE:
In the course, the main parameters and the advantages of the most frequently used Compound
Semiconductor and Metaloxide Materials, as well as the necessary technological processes and
procedures, for creation of devices in Microelectronics and Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS),
using such materials, are reviewed.
PREREQUISITES:
Physics, Chemistry, Material Science, Nanomaterials, Micro- and Nanosystems Technologies.
TEACHING METHODS:
The lectures are conducted with the aim of visual samples. Laboratory works are carried out by instructions
and protocols.
METHOD OF ASSESSMENT: Two control works, during the second semester and final mark.
INSTRUCTION LANGUAGE: Bulgarian (English is possible).
