Resonant Varifocal Micromirror with Piezoresistive Focus Sensor
This paper reports a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) resonant varifocal mirror integrated with piezoresistive focus sensor. The varifocal mirror is driven electrostatically at a resonant frequency of a mirror plate to obtain the wide scanning range of a focal length. A piezoresistor is used to monitor the focal length of the varifocal mirror. The device is made of a silicon-on-insulator (...
متن کاملA Fourier Transform Spectrometer Based on an Electrothermal MEMS Mirror with Improved Linear Scan Range
A Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) that incorporates a closed-loop controlled, electrothermally actuated microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) micromirror is proposed and experimentally verified. The scan range and the tilting angle of the mirror plate are the two critical parameters for MEMS-based FTS. In this work, the MEMS mirror with a footprint of 4.3 mm × 3.1 mm is based on a modified...
متن کاملSimple models for piston-type micromirror behavior
Parallel-plate electrostatic actuators are a simple way to achieve piston motion for large numbers of mirrors in spatial light modulators. However, selection of design parameters is made difficult by their nonlinear behavior. This paper presents simple models for predicting static and dynamic behaviors of fixed–fixed parallel-plate electrostatic actuators. Static deflection equations are derive...
متن کاملElectrostatically Actuated 2-dimensional Mems Micromirror
Electrostatically actuated Micro-Electro-MechanicalSystems (MEMS) based micromirror is a fundamental building block for a variety of optical network applications, such as optical wavelength-selective switching, add/drop multiplexing, and optical cross-connecting. The design, analysis and testing of a 2-Dimensional (2D) electrostatically actuated torsional MEMS micromirror is presented in this p...
متن کاملAn Electrothermally-Actuated Bistable MEMS Relay for Power Applications
This thesis first develops a bistable mechanism that does not rely on internal stress or hinges for its bistability, which is then combined with transient electrothermal actuation and contact structure to develop a MEMS relay for power switching. The relay components, fabricated by a through etch of a silicon wafer using deep reactive ion etch (DRIE), move laterally in the plane of the wafer. T...
