    摘要: An electronic device of an embodiment of the invention is for at least partially displaying a pixel of a displayable image. The electronic device includes a first reflector and a second reflector that define an optical cavity therebetween, and which is selective of a visible wavelength at an intensity by optical interference. The electronic device also includes a mechanism to allow optical properties of the optical cavity to be varied. The visible wavelength and/or the intensity are thus variably selectable in correspondence with the pixel of the displayable image.

    摘要: A charge control circuit for controlling a micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) device having variable capacitor formed by first conductive plate and a second conductive plate separated by a variable gap distance. The charge control circuit comprises a switch circuit configured to receive a reference voltage having a selected voltage level and configured to respond to an enable signal having a duration at least as long as an electrical time constant constant of the MEMS device, but shorter than a mechanical time constant of the MEMS device, to apply the selected voltage level across the first and second plates for the duration to thereby cause a stored charge having a desired magnitude to accumulate on the variable capacitor, wherein the variable gap distance is a function of the magnitude of the stored charge.

    摘要: A method for calibrating an interferometer uses an actuator adapted to control an optical gap in response to application of an electrical signal. The interferometer is illuminated with a beam of light having a predetermined substantially monochromatic wavelength, oriented at a first predetermined angle of incidence, and light reflected from the interferometer at a second predetermined angle is detected while varying an electrical signal applied to the actuator, thereby establishing a calibrated relationship between the applied electrical signal and an optical path length of the interferometer.
