INTRODUCTION
● Large size material for drug delivery problem
such as low solubility, a lack of targeted
delivery and generalized side effects
● Drug delivery provides the potential for
enhanced treatment with targeted delivery and
fewer side effect.
● Micro actuator generates forces or
displacements to realize scanning, tuning
manipulating or delivering function.
