    Abstract: An actuator system that includes two beams that are formed into a diamond pattern. A crossbar is positioned at a midsection to connect the two beams. When power is applied to the two beams, the diamond pattern is driven vertically. An actuator system may also include a substrate and a first layer above a second layer on the substrate. The first and second layers include upper and lower beams joined together at one end of the layers. A method of forming an actuator system includes forming a first layer above a second layer on a substrate, joining the first and second layers together at one end of the layers, and forming upper and lower beams. The upper and lower beams may be different in width, length and thickness to control a vertical movement of the actuator system.

    Abstract: An improved cantilever beam optical switch design which provides the function of a variable optical attenuator (VOA). A small degree of intentional misalignment of the waveguide will create different levels of optical attenuation. By finely controlling the misalignment of a selected switched position, a single device may be realized that will provide the functions of both switching and attenuating or just attenuation alone. The optical MEMS device utilizes a latching mechanism in association with a thermal drive actuator for aligning a cantilever beam platform. The integration of the switching function and the VOA function reduce the optical loss which is otherwise unavoidable when the inevitable alterative of a separate switch and a separate VOA must necessarily be employed. The resultant improved device can also be applied for correcting the difference in optical intensity created by the manufacturing tolerances inherent in the fabrication of array waveguide gratings.

    Abstract: A micro-optical device having an aligned waveguide switch. The device includes a stationary input part, a stationary output part and a movable part. The stationary input part and the stationary output part each have a plurality of input and output waveguides, respectively. The movable part has a plurality of switching waveguides and is movable relative to the stationary input and output parts. A stop block limits movement of the movable part in order to align at least one of the switching waveguides with the applicable input waveguide(s) and output waveguide(s). The movement of the movable part is substantially transverse.

    Abstract: An electrophoretic display liquid composition for use in an electrophoretic display device that has a multiplicity of individual reservoirs, each containing the liquid, contains one or at least two sets of particles dispersed in a transparent and/or colored liquid system. The at least two sets of particles exhibit different, contrasting color and different charging properties from each other, while in the one particle system, the particles exhibit a different, contrasting color from the colored liquid. In all embodiments, at least one of the sets of particles are particles with adjustable morphology made from emulsion/aggregation process. The morphology of the particles is controlled to be from grape, cauliflower, raspberry, or potato up to substantially perfect spheres. The transparent liquid system may include two immiscible liquids having different densities with the sets of particles having densities in between the densities of the two immiscible liquids such that the particles rest at an interface between the two immiscible liquids.
