Scaling
Laws
Scaling
laws
can
be
used
to
answer
the
quesGon
of
Why
go
small?
They
allow
us
to
determine
whether
physical
phenomena
will
scale
more
favorably
or
will
scale
poorly.
Because
the
natural
laws
scale
dierently
your
natural
intuiGon
will
fail
you
in
microsystems
design
and
you
need
to
develop
a
microscale-
intuiGon.
Scaling
Laws
Generally,
smaller
things
are
less
aected
by
volume
dependent
phenomena
such
as
mass
and
inerGa,
and
are
more
aected
by
surface
area
dependent
phenomena
such
as
contact
forces
or
heat
transfer.

-Given
three
cubes
of
dierent
sizes
a
=
10,
1
and
0.1,
with
all
other
properGes
the
same,
consider
the
rate
of
cooling.
-Assume
that
all
cubes
start
at
the
same
high
temperature,
and
are
allowed
to
cool
to
the
same
low
temperature.
-The
total
heat
contained
in
the
smallest
cube
is
1,000,000
Gmes
less
than
the
large
cube.
-The
total
surface
area
(heat
dissipaGon
area)
of
the
smallest
cube
is
only
10,000
Gmes
less
than
the
large
cube.
-Therefore,
there
is
100
Gmes
more
heat
dissipaGon,
per
unit
volume,
in
the
smallest
cube.
In
other
words,
it
will
cool
at
a
much
faster
rate,
even
though
all
other
condiGons
are
the
same
for
all
cubes.

Surface

Liquids
want
to
minimize
surface
energy.
Scales
linearly
with
decreasing
size
so
it
becomes
very
strong
in
microsystems.
Can

Can

SGcGon
MEMS
tend
to
be
quite
at
and
smooth,
which
combined
with
the
increased
signicance
of
surface
area
forces
can
lead
to
what
is
commonly
called
sGcGon.
SGcGon
-
occurs
when
a
microstructure
gets
stuck
to
the
substrate
due
to
surface
adhesion
forces
being
greater
than
the
mechanical
restoring
force
of
the
micro-structure.

SGcGon
During
drying
a{er
release,
surface
tension
can
cause
parts
to
deform.
The
parts
can
then
become
permanently
stuck
to
the
surface
of
the
substrate
due
to
sGcGon.
23
SGcGon
For
in-use
sGcGon
various
surface
treatments
have
been
developed
to
reduce
the
occurrence
of
sGcGon.

SoluGons
to

sGcGon
exist
in

of

Nano
Scaling
Beyond
the
microscale
many
properGes
of
materials
begin
to
change
once
the

is

Cataloguing

ways
to

these
new

is
a
new

hot
area
of
research.
