Abstract: The present disclosure provides a MEMS device including a device wafer, a cap wafer and a bonding layer. The device wafer includes: a device substrate, having a first main surface, a second main surface opposite to the first main surface, and a cavity recessed along a first direction from the first main surface toward the second main surface; a sensor unit, located within the cavity and mechanically connected to and electrically insulated from the device substrate by a single anchor; and a device wiring, electrically coupled to the sensor unit. The cap wafer includes: a cap substrate, facing the device wafer from a side of the first main surface; and a cap wiring, electrically coupled to the device wiring. The bonding layer bonds the device wafer with the cap wafer, and the device wiring is directly connected to the bonding layer.

Abstract: An optical system including a dual-layer microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) device, and methods of fabricating and operating the same are disclosed. Generally, the MEMS device includes a substrate having an upper surface; a top modulating layer including a number of light modulating micro-ribbons, each micro-ribbon supported above and separated from the upper surface of the substrate by spring structures in at least one lower actuating layer; and a mechanism for moving one or more of the micro-ribbons relative to the upper surface and/or each other. The spring structures are operable to enable the light modulating micro-ribbons to move continuously and vertically relative to the upper surface of the substrate while maintaining the micro-ribbons substantially parallel to one another and the upper surface of the substrate. The micro-ribbons can be reflective, transmissive, partially reflective/transmissive, and the device is operable to modulate a phase and/or amplitude of light incident thereon.
