    Abstract: A microelectrical mechanical system (MEMS) implementation of tunable Fabry Perot filter devices is disclosed. The advantages associated with the use of these tunable etalons include increases in aperture size, displacement, reliability, and a reduction in cost. In some examples, integrated tunable detectors in miniature spectrometers using a thermal driven MEMS Fabry-Perot tunable filter are provided. Other examples use integrated thermal driven tunable MEMS Fabry-Perot filter to select fiber optical communication channel.

    Abstract: A planer silicon-based displacement amplification structure and a method are provided for latching the displacement. The displacement amplification structure may include a first actuation beam and a second actuation beam coupled to the first beam with an angle, the ends of the first beam and the second beam coupled to fixture sites, and an end of the second beam coupled to a motion actuator; a motion shutter coupled to an opposing end of the first and second beams; and a latching thermoelectric displacement structure blocking the shutter return path and have faster response than the shutter structure.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a displacement amplification structure and a method for controlling displacement. In one aspect, the displacement amplification structure of the present disclosure includes a first beam and a second beam substantially parallel to the first beam, an end of the first beam coupled to a fixture site, and an end of the second beam coupled to a motion actuator; and a motion shutter coupled to an opposing end of the first and second beams. In response to a displacement of the motion actuator along an axis direction of the second beam, the motion shutter displaces a distance along a transversal direction substantially perpendicular to the axis direction.
