The MEMS Technology Group is part of the Microdevices Laboratory (MDL) at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). The group pursues the development of a wide range of advanced MEMS technologies that are primarily applicable to NASA's robotic as well as manned exploration missions.
Advances in aeronautics and space technology have created a need for miniaturized navigation instruments such as gyroscopes, a need wich is currently beig addressed by a number of micromachined designs.
This paper reports on the development of a high performance silicon bulk micromachined vibratory gyroscope designed for microspacecraft applications.
We report on the development of a Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) valve that is designed to meet the rigorous performance requirements for a variety of space applications, such as micropropulsion, in-situ chemical analysis of the planet, or micro-fluidics experiments in micro-gravity.
