    摘要: A micromechanical device (50) with spring tips (60) and its method of manufacture. A micromechanical device (50) is formed such that there is a deflectable element (36) suspended by at least one hinge (24a) over an air gap, at the bottom of which are landing stops (34a). The element (36) deflects on said hinge and comes into contact with the landing stops (34a) via at least one small metal protrusion (60), or spring tip. The spring tip flexes upon contact allowing more even distribution of forces and less wear and adhesion. The spring tips are formed in standard semiconductor processing steps with the addition of patterning the metal layer (64) from which the hinges are formed to create separated metal elements. When the deflectable element is formed, the metal forming that element bonds to the separated metal elements at the tips, thereby forming the spring tips.

    摘要: A processing fixture and method of fabricating micromechanical devices, such as digital micromirror devices, that allows fragile structures on wafer 22 to be protected from debris during the saw operation and subsequent cleaning operations. The wafer 22 is attached to a vacuum fixture 26 after partially sawing the wafer 22 to create saw kerfs. The backside of the wafer 22 is then ground down to the saw kerfs 24 to separate the devices 32. Each device 32 is held on the fixture by a vacuum in the headspace above the device 32. In an alternate embodiment the devices are separated by sawing completely through the wafer while in the fixture.

    摘要: A deformable mirror device comprises a plurality of groups of colored mirrors responsive to electronic signals. Each group of mirrors is coated with a mixture of resist and dye thereby reflecting specified wavelengths of visible light. A process for manufacturing such a color deformable mirror device ("DMD") includes forming a layer of material on the DMD comprising a resist and a dye and selectively removing portions of the layer of material from the DMD.
