Abstract

The paper discusses the potential of silicon-based integration of disciplines of microelectronics, microoptics, and micromechanics, (MEOM), to achieve sensor-based smart subsystems for pervasive environmental applications. The author proposes a federally-focused initiative to establish an R & D institute to expedite progress and achieve global industrial leadership.
