Research Survey of Electroformed Nickel Material Properties Used in MEMS

Article Preview

Abstract:

As one of the significant structural materials used in safe and arming system of MEMS fuze, the research on micro-electroforming process technologies and micro-electroforming nickel’s properties have been a popular field for MEMS area. This paper surveys present domestic and overseas research status of mechanical characterization of electroformed nickel, summarizes and analyzes that changes of the microstructure led by parameters of micro-electroforming process and the external environment make great effects.
