    Abstract: A micro machine may be in or less than the micrometer domain. The micro machine may include a micro actuator and a micro shaft coupled to the micro actuator. The micro shaft is operable to be driven by the micro actuator. A tool is coupled to the micro shaft and is operable to perform work in response to at least motion of the micro shaft. In accordance with other aspects of the disclosure methods and systems for micro transmissions for micro machines may be provided. Micro machines may include micro structures configured to move into engagement with other micro structures. A micro drive assembly may comprise a substrate, a micro shaft oriented in-plane with the substrate and at least one micro bearing to support rotation of the shaft. For example micro machines may include micro rotary machines and micro transport machines.

    Abstract: The present invention is focused on a revolutionary, low-cost (highly-scaleable) approach for the mass production of three-dimensional microcomponents: the biological reproduction of naturally-derived, biocatalytically-derived, and/or genetically-tailored three-dimensional microtemplates (e.g., frustules of diatoms, microskeletons of radiolarians, shells of mollusks) with desired dimensional features, followed by reactive conversion of such microtemplates into microcomponents with desired compositions that differ from the starting microtemplate and with dimensional features that are similar to those of the starting microtemplate. Because the shapes of such microcomponents may be tailored through genetic engineering of the shapes of the microtemplates, such microcomposites are considered to be Genetically-Engineered Materials (GEMs).

    Abstract: A method of fabricating a micromechanical part in a single-piece made of a synthetic carbon-allotrope includes forming a substrate which includes the negative cavity for the micromechanical part to be fabricated, coating the negative cavity of the substrate with a layer of the synthetic carbon allotrope in a thickness of between 0.2 μm and 20 μm, the thickness being less than the depth of the negative cavity, removing from the substrate a larger thickness than the thickness of the deposited layer, so as to leave a limited thickness of the layer of material in the negative cavity, and removing the substrate so as to release the single-piece micromechanical part formed in the negative cavity comprising an external surface of comparable roughness to that of the substrate.
