Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and apparatus for removing the sacrificial materials in fabrications of microstructures using a vapor phase etchant recipe having a spontaneous vapor phase chemical etchant. The vapor phase etchant recipe has a mean-free-path corresponding to the minimum thickness of the sacrificial layers between the structural layers of the microstructure. This method is of particular importance in removing the sacrificial layers underneath the structural layers of the microstructure.

Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus for evaluating the product quality and performances of micromirror array devices through measurements of the electromechanical responses of the individual micromirrors to the driving forces of electric fields. The electromechanical responses of the micromirrors according to the present invention are described in terms of the rotational angles associated with the operational states, such as the ON and OFF state angles of the ON and OFF state when the micromirror array device is operated in the binary-state mode, and the response speed (i.e. the time interval required for a micromirror device to transit form one state to another) of the individual micromirrors to the driving fields.

Abstract: A micromirror array comprises micromirrors of different properties for use particularly in display systems. Micromirrors of different properties can be arranged within the micromirror array according to a predetermined pattern, or randomly. However, it is advantageous to arrange the micromirrors with different properties within the micromirror array neither in complete order nor complete in random.

Abstract: A micromirror of a micromirror array of a spatial light modulator used in display systems comprises a mirror plate attached to a hinge that is supported by two posts formed on a substrate. Also the mirror plate is operable to rotate along a rotation axis that is parallel to but offset from a diagonal of the mirror plate when viewed from the top. An imaginary line connecting the two posts is not parallel to either diagonal of the mirror plate.
