Performance of Tense Thin-Film Torsion Bar for Large Rotation and Low-Voltage Driving of Micromirror
Sasaki M. Yuki S. Hane K. 《IEEE journal of selected topics in quantum electronics》2007,13(2):290-296
In this paper, a micromirror device is developed by realizing the large rotation with the low-voltage driving. The maximum rotation angles observed at 5 V are 8.6deg with hysteresis and 7deg with little hysteresis at the static condition. The thin-film torsion bars contribute to decrease in the torsional spring constant. The tension is included for maintaining the compliance in the rotation of the mirror and for increasing stiffness in other movements. The performance of the torsion bar is investigated. The observed hard-spring effect is significant and this can be explained by the combination of the tension and the vertical displacement of the torsion bar 相似文献

We report on the theory and experiments of scanning micromirrors with angular vertical comb-drive (AVC) actuators. Parametric analyses of rotational vertical comb-drive actuators using a hybrid model that combines two-dimensional finite-element solutions with analytic formulations are described. The model is applied to both AVC and staggered vertical comb-drive (SVC) actuators. Detailed design tradeoffs and conditions for pull-in-free operations are discussed. Our simulation results show that the fringe fields play an important role in the estimation of maximum continuous rotation angles, particularly for combs with thin fingers, and that the maximum scan angle of the AVC is up to 60% larger than that of the SVC. Experimentally, a large dc continuous scan angle of 28.8/spl deg/ (optical) has been achieved with a moderate voltage (65 V) for a 1-mm-diameter scanning micromirror with AVC actuators. Excellent agreement between the experimental data and the theoretical simulations has been obtained. 相似文献

In this paper, fully monolithic silicon optical scanners are demonstrated with large static optical beam deflection. The main advantage of the scanners is their high speed of operation for both axes: namely, the actuators allow static two-axis rotation in addition to pistoning of a micromirror without the need for gimbals or specialized isolation technologies. The basic device is actuated by four orthogonally arranged vertical comb-drive rotators etched in the device layer of an silicon-on-insulator wafer, which are coupled by mechanical linkages and mechanical rotation transformers to a central micromirror. The transformers allow larger static rotations of the micromirror from the comb-drive stroke limited rotation of the actuators, with a magnification of up to 3/spl times/ angle demonstrated. A variety of one-axis and two-axis devices have been successfully fabricated and tested, in all cases with 600-/spl mu/m-diameter micromirrors. One-axis micromirrors achieve static optical beam deflections of >20/spl deg/ and peak-to-peak resonant scanning of >50/spl deg/ in one example at a resonant frequency of 4447 Hz. Many two-axis devices utilizing four rotators were tested, and exhibit >18/spl deg/ of static optical deflection at <150 V, while their lowest resonant frequencies are above 4.5 kHz for both axes. A device which utilizes only three bidirectional rotators for tip-tilt-piston actuation achieves -10/spl deg/ to 10/spl deg/ of optical deflection in all axes, and exhibits minimum resonant frequencies of 4096 and 1890 Hz for rotation and pistoning, respectively. Finally, we discuss the preliminary results in scaling tip-tilt-piston devices down to 0.4 /spl times/ 0.4 mm on a side for high fill-factor optical phased arrays. These array elements include bonded low-inertia micromirrors which fully cover the actuators to achieve high fill-factor. 相似文献

In this paper, we present the design, simulation, fabrication, and characterization of a two-axis gimbal-less micromirror optimized for large-angle circumferential scanning applications. The single-crystal silicon micromirror consists of novel folded bimorph electrothermal actuators, flexural springs, and a mirror plate coated with a high-reflective Cr/Au thin film. A modified silicon-on-insulator microelectromechanical system process has been applied on the micromirror fabrication. The single-wafer process is based on deep reactive ion etching in order to achieve high fill factor as well as small outline of the micromirror chip. A new mechanical design of bimorph actuators is developed to further increase the mechanical deflection. Both theoretical and experimental results demonstrate that the micromirror can provide a uniform mechanical deflection up to ~9deg with multichannel driving voltages of less than 2.3 V to any angle in full 360deg circumference. 相似文献

A vertical spring-type micromirror was fabricated using a shielding screen structure. Unlike the micromirror that was fabricated using only shadow evaporation, the fabricated vertical springs in this case are well defined, using both shadow evaporation and a shielding screen structure. The static and dynamic characteristics of micromirror are measured by means of contact-free optical measurement system. The downward threshold voltage is 16 V and the step response time is 16.8 μs. Images are projected onto a screen using a simple projection system with the fabricated micromirror array 相似文献

This paper presents the design, fabrication, and measurement results of a 2/spl times/2 microelectromechanical systems optical switch. The switch comprises an electromagnet and lensed fibers assembled with a micromachined movable vertical micromirror. The optical switch utilizes the out-of-plane motion of the vertical micromirror actuated by electromagnetic force compared to the comb-driven linear actuation achieved by the electrostatic force. At a wavelength of 1550 nm, the insertion loss of 0.2-0.8 dB and the polarization-dependent loss of 0.02-0.2 dB are measured. The switching time is 1 ms. A novel method of realizing a latchable optical switch using an electromagnetic actuator is also provided and verified. The latch mechanism is based on the latchability of the electropermanent magnet instead of the mechanical one using conventional arch-shaped leaf springs. 相似文献

A varifocal micromirror is designed and fabricated using silicon micromachining technology. A spherical convex surface of mirror is generated by applying a bending moment to the circumference of micromirror. This method is different from the conventional technique in which a distributed force is exerted on the central area of mirror. On the basis of the theory of materials strength, the deformation of a plate is purely spherical if only a bending moment is applied to the circumference. Spherical surface is well approximated to be a parabola if deflection is small. In order to generate only a bending moment, a force is applied to the plate in the region outside the fulcrum, by which the plate is supported freely in rotation. The proposed mirror was fabricated from a silicon on insulator wafer and a glass plate, which were connected by anodic bonding. The deviation in surface profile of mirror from a parabola was measured with an optical interferometer to be less than 4.7 nm rms in the mirror region inside the 400-mum-diameter fulcrum at the voltage lower than 215 V. The focal length of the fabricated mirror was varied from approximate infinity to 24 mm. 相似文献

Vertical combdrive based 2-D gimbaled micromirrors with large static rotation by backside island isolation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Sunghoon Kwon Milanovic V. Lee L.P. 《IEEE journal of selected topics in quantum electronics》2004,10(3):498-504
We introduce a backside island isolation method for silicon-on-insulator (SOI)-based microelectromechanical systems technology and demonstrate vertical comb drive-based two-dimensional gimbaled micromirrors with large static rotation using the isolation method. The proposed isolation method provides electrical isolation and mechanical coupling of SOI structures without additional dielectric backfill and planarization by utilizing timed etched backside handle wafer structures. The backside island is a hidden layer beneath the gimbal and allows independent application of actuation potentials to the gimbal and inner mirror. We developed the fabrication process that accommodates the backside island isolation structures into an established vertical comb drive process, thereby allowing implementation of two-axis gimbaled structures. The maximum static optical deflections of the gimbal and mirror are 46/spl deg/ and 15/spl deg/, respectively. 相似文献

A superconducting (SC) magnetically levitated (Maglev) transportation system has been developed in Japan and various experiments have been done on the new test line in Yamanashi prefecture. Although the superconducting electrodynamic suspension (EDS) system has the advantage of stable levitation without active control, various electromagnetic or mechanical disturbances can change the gap length and cause the displacement or oscillation of the bogie. In this system, the severest disturbance is SC coil quenching. Therefore, it is important to determine the running characteristics of the Maglev train and to increase the stability in this case. We developed a three‐dimensional numerical simulation program for the Maglev train. Using this program, a running simulation of the train for the Yamanashi new test track was undertaken in the case of SC coil quenching. Because of the damping characteristics of the EDS system, the influence of coil quenching is smaller at higher speeds. In the train model, the electromagnetic spring strength of the EDS system is larger than that of the mechanical spring of the secondary suspension system connecting the bogie and cabin. Therefore, influence of the quenching is only seen in the cabins connected to the quenched bogie. Demagnetization of the SC coil quenching is considered to increase the stability of the train. Although this method is useful to decrease large guidance force, lateral displacement, yaw and roll angle of the bogie, vertical displacement, and pitch angle become large. © 1999 Scripta Technica, Electr Eng Jpn, 130(1): 95–105, 2000 相似文献

The rotor radial force is changed by adjusting the windings current value to control rotor suspension for various kinds of bearingless switched reluctance motor (BSRM). To accomplish the BSRM's suspension control, the radial force analytical model is necessary. Currently the mathematic relationship among radial force, winding currents, and rotor rotation angle has been built for double-winding BSRM, but the rotor eccentricity displacement has not been considered. That is, the existing radial force analytical model only can be used to analyze rotor radial force when rotor shaft is located in the central position. Actually, the rotor radial force is significantly affected by the rotor shaft eccentricity displacement. It is difficult for the bearingless motor to keep the rotor shaft staying in the central position, and the rotor shaft always runs around the central position with an eccentricity displacement. The rotor eccentricity caused by the radial force is considered in the paper to obtain the air-gap permeance and the windings inductances. Furthermore, the radial forces analytical model considering the rotor eccentricity displacement is derived. Finally, the finite-element method (FEM)-based results are applied and the dynamics simulation using the proposed model is accomplished to verify the correctness of the model. 相似文献

A new method for realizing three-dimensional structures based on the standard silicon-on-insulator microelectromechanical systems is developed using vertically buckled bridges as structural elements. The vertical displacement, profile of the bridge, and obtainable accuracy of the displacement are examined. Using the lateral dimension control of the bridge and the supporting beams, the vertical positioning is realized based on the planer photolithography. As a demonstration, a vertical comb drive actuator is prepared and its performance is examined. 相似文献

Surface micromachined segmented mirrors for adaptive optics 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

This paper presents recent results for aberration correction and beam steering experiments using polysilicon surface micromachined piston micromirror arrays. Microfabricated deformable mirrors offer a substantial cost reduction for adaptive optic systems. In addition to the reduced mirror cost, microfabricated mirrors typically require low control voltages (less than 30 V), thus eliminating high-voltage amplifiers. The greatly reduced cost per channel of adaptive optic systems employing microfabricated deformable mirrors promise high-order aberration correction at low cost. Arrays of piston micromirrors with 128 active elements were tested. Mirror elements are on a 203-μm 12×12 square grid (with 16 inactive elements, four in each corner of the array). The overall array size is 2.4 mm square. The arrays were fabricated in a commercially available surface micromachining process. The cost per mirror array in this prototyping process is less than $200. Experimental results are presented for a hybrid correcting element comprised of a lenslet array and piston micromirror array, and for a piston micromirror array only. Also presented is a novel digital deflection micromirror that requires no digital to analog converters, further reducing the cost of adaptive optics systems 相似文献
