Microsystems Laboratory

The Microsystems Laboratory 1 (LMIS1) at EPFL, led by Prof. Jürgen Brugger, specializes in advancing microsystems (MEMS) and nanotechnology, addressing challenges at the mesoscopic scale. The lab pioneers innovative fabrication techniques such as thermal scanning probe lithography, stencil lithography, melt electrowriting, and voxelated 3D printing for high-resolution patterning and material deposition. LMIS1 actively develops wearable and implantable medical devices, explores new methods for NMR and ESR spectroscopy on small samples and it leverages hands-on training as well as mixed reality technologies to enhance digital education in cleanrooms to drive research in emerging technologies.
