摘要:
A method of making a microstructure with thin wall portions (T1-T3) includes a step of performing a first etching process to a material substrate having a laminate structure including a first conductive layer (11) and a second conductive layer (12) having a thickness of the thin wall portions (T1-T3), where the etching is performed from the side of the first conductive layer (11) thereby forming in the second conductive layer (12) pre thin wall portions (T1′-T3′) which has a pair of side surfaces apart from each other in an in-plane direction of the second conductive layer (12) and contact the first conductive layer (11). The method also includes a step of performing a second etching process from the side of the first conductive layer (11) for removing part of the first conductive layer (11) contacting the pre thin wall portions (T1′-T3′) to form the thin wall portions.

A micro-oscillation element includes a movable main section, a first frame and a second frame, and a first connecting section that connects the movable main section and the first frame and defines a first axis of rotation for a first rotational operation of the movable main section with respect to the first frame. The element further includes a second connecting section that connects the first frame and the second frame and defines a second axis of rotation for a second rotational operation of the first frame and the movable main section with respect to the second frame. A first drive mechanism is provided for generating a driving force for the first rotational operation. A second drive mechanism is provided for generating a driving force for the second rotational operation. The first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation are not orthogonal.

A micro-oscillation element includes a frame, a movable functional part, a driving mechanism, a beam extending from the functional part to the driving mechanism, and a torsion connector for connecting the frame and the beam to each other. The connector defines a rotational axis about which the functional part rotates. The rotational axis crosses the longitudinal direction of the beam. The beam is shorter than the functional part in the longitudinal direction of the rotational axis.
