Introduction to Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) with Emphasis on Optical Applications
Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems, or MEMS, are integrated micro devices or systems combining electrical and mechanical components. They are fabricated using integrated circuit (IC) batch processing techniques and can range in size from micrometers to millimeters. These systems can sense, control and actuate on the micro scale, and function individually or in arrays to generate effects on the ma...
متن کاملFabrication of microprisms for planar optical interconnections by use of analog gray-scale lithography with high-energy-beam-sensitive glass.
For an integrated free-space optical interconnection system we suggest the use of microprisms to achieve large coupling angles at low loss. Prisms were fabricated in photoresist and quartz glass by analog lithography. High-energy-beam-sensitive glass was used as the gray-tone mask. Optical testing of the prisms shows acceptable surface quality and high efficiency (95%).

A three-dimensional multi-stage optical interconnection network is proposed for mussively purullel processors. The interconnection network employs beamsteering vertical cavity surface-emitting lasers FCSEL) as space-division switching elements, and micromachined micro-Fresnel lenses as free-space optical elements. The entire switching network is integrated on a Si chip using the free-space micr...
