“…Gatzen (Leibniz Univ. Hannover, Germany) et al developed a Slider with an Integrated Microactuator (SLIM) used as a secondary actuator for improving the recording properties in hard disk drives (18). By placing the read-write element on a small chiplet rather than on the trailing edge of a slider, the design promises to be cost competitive.…”

For active micro and nano electromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS), electromagnetic actuators excel in robustness, are capable of substantial displacements, and of exerting rather large forces. This paper presents an overview over interesting micro and nano magnetic actuation activities in the range of optical devices, fluidic pump systems, biomedical applications, computer and communication technology devices, as well as X and X-Y actuation systems. Particular emphasis is put on research conducted in this field at the Leibniz Universitaet Hannover in Germany.
