permanent adhesion of compliant microstructures to the substrate when capillary or surface forces during release or use exceed their elastic restoring force.

In MEMS and microfluidics, stiction refers to permanent adhesion of compliant microstructures to the substrate when capillary or surface forces during release or use exceed their elastic restoring force. This meaning comes from Mastrangelo (1993) in Journal of Microelectromechanical Systems.[1]
