    摘要: A method for forming a micro cavity is disclosed. In the method for forming the cavity, a first layer is formed on a silicon layer and a trench is formed in the silicon layer by selectively etching the silicon layer. A second and a third layers are formed on the trench and on the silicon layer. Etching holes are formed through the third layer by partially etching the third layer. A cavity is formed between the silicon layer and the third layer after the second layer is removed through the etching holes. Therefore, the cavity having a large size can be easily formed and sealed in the silicon layer by utilizing the volume expansion of the silicon or the poly silicon layer. Also, a vacuum micro cavity can be formed according as a low vacuum CVD oxide layer or a nitride layer formed on the etching holes which are partially opened after the thermal oxidation process by controlling the size of the etching holes concerning the other portion of the poly silicon layer.

    摘要: Provided is a wavelength tunable optical filter of a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS). The wavelength tunable optical filter comprises two optical fibers or optical waveguides having their optical axes aligned to each other, two lens for collimating light at leading ends of the optical fibers or optical waveguides, two or more mirrors formed on a substrate, thermal actuators supporting at least one of the mirrors, wherein one of the mirrors is actuated by thermal expansion of the actuator. Because all mirrors are formed on a substrate, a manufacturing process is simple and an initial resonance wavelength can be precisely adjusted. Since the thermal expansion is generated by the electrical current directly flowing through the thermal actuators, it can be actuated by a low consumption power. Also, since an electrostatic force is not used to move the mirrors, a sticking phenomenon between the mirrors does not occur, and the wavelength can be tunable in a wide range. Since the planar mirrors are arranged in parallel, the light alignment is easily performed, the line width is constant and the insertion loss is low.
