    摘要: An electrostatic liquid-ejection actuation mechanism includes a membrane, a frame, and one or more deformable beams. The frame has two sides and a number of cross members that are non-parallel to the two sides. The two sides and the cross members define one or more areas individually corresponding to one or more liquid chambers. The deformable beams are disposed between the membrane and the frame. The deformable beams individually correspond to the liquid chambers, and define a number of slits. Each slit is adjacent to one of the two sides of the frame. The deformable beams have a width that is less than a width of the liquid chambers, due at least to the slits.

    摘要: Systems, methodologies, and other embodiments associated with a micro-electrical-mechanical system (MEMS) Fabry-Perot interferometric device (FPID) are described. Fabricating a MEMS FPID may include fabricating a pixel plate and a reflector plate so a Fabry-Perot cavity is defined therebetween. Fabrication may include producing a capacitor plate that facilitates electrostatically moving the pixel plate. Fabrication may include producing electrical connections between plates and producing circuitry to control plate voltages to facilitate creating an electrostatic force between plates. The MEMS FPID may include stops fabricated from a conductive material and circuitry for maintaining the stops and plates at an electrical potential that will yield a zero electric field contact event.

    摘要: A method and apparatus providing a micro-mirror device configured to increase a switching frequency thereof. The micro-mirror device includes a substrate with at least one address electrode positioned over the substrate to provide an electrostatic force and includes at least one support member positioned over the substrate and extending upward above the substrate. The micro-mirror device also includes a mirror and a spring member. The mirror is disposed over the at least one address electrode and coupled to the at least one support member. The mirror is configured to deflect toward the substrate in response to the at least one address electrode applying the electrostatic force to the mirror. The spring member is spaced apart between the substrate and the mirror and coupled to the at least one support member. The spring member is operable to deflect separately from the mirror and toward the substrate.
