摘要:
Method and device for forming a membrane includes providing a glass substrate, and depositing a thin layer of chromium on the glass substrate. The thin layer of chromium is patterned to form a deflection electrode and interconnect leads. A sacrificial layer of aluminum is deposited on top of the patterned chromium layer, then the sacrificial layer is patterned to define anchor regions. On top of the sacrificial layer, a thick layer of chromium is deposited, and the thick layer of chromium is patterned to form a membrane. The sacrificial layer is then etched to release the membrane.

摘要:
A micro-optical-electrical-mechanical laser scanner is configured from a silicon-on-insulator substrate having a silicon substrate layer, a buried oxide layer, and a single crystal silicon device layer. A first device layer portion having a micro-mirror fabricated therefrom. A laser is connected to a second device layer portion, and a hinge connects the first device layer portion and the second device layer portion. The hinge is formed with a bimorph material, wherein the bimorph material creates built-in stresses in the hinge. The bimorph hinge moves the released micro-mirror out of the horizontal plane to a position for either directly or indirectly reflecting laser light emitted from the laser.
