摘要: A piezoelectric actuating apparatus includes a frame having an opening, a rotatable element, first and second actuating elements, a sensing element, transmission elements, a sensing electrode, and a driving electrode. The rotatable element is in the opening, connected to the frame via a rotating shaft structure, and reciprocatingly swings relative to the frame around an axis of the rotating shaft structure as a center. The first actuating element is connected to the rotatable element. The transmission elements are between the first and second actuating elements, and between the first actuating element and the sensing element. The second actuating element and the sensing element are coupled to the rotatable element via the transmission elements. The sensing electrode is on a part of the transmission elements and the sensing element. The driving electrode is on another part of the transmission elements and the first and second actuating elements.

摘要: An actuator layer of a MEMS sensor is be fabricated to include multi-level features, such as additional sense electrodes, vertical bump stops, or weighted proof masses. A sacrificial layer is deposited on the actuator layer such that locations are provided for the multi-level features to extend vertically from the actuator layer. After the multi-layer features are fabricated on the actuator layer the sacrificial layer is removed. Additional processing such as patterning of the actuator layer may be performed to provide desired functionality and electrical signals to portions of the actuator layer, including to the multi-level features.

摘要: A microelectromechanical component for interacting with a pressure gradient of a fluid. The component has a substrate with a through-cavity, a microelectromechanical transducer including a middle support layer and two diaphragm elements spaced apart from the middle support layer. The middle support layer has at least one center electrode. The diaphragm elements each have a separately contactable outer electrode. The diaphragm elements together with the middle support layer form one or more cavities on both sides of the middle support layer. The microelectromechanical transducer spans the through-cavity at least partially and is deformable along a vertical movement direction. The microelectromechanical transducer has a bending region. A deformation of the microelectromechanical transducer in the vertical movement direction results in a bending of the bending region. Spacers are arranged between the middle support layer and the diaphragm elements. At least one of the spacers is arranged in the bending region.

摘要: MEMS devices include a suspended element connected to a fixed part of a substrate by one or more flexures, wherein the one or more flexures are configured to permit movement of the suspended element relative to a fixed part of the substrate. A sensor coupled to the suspended element and a damping structure coupled to the suspended element extends into a gap between the suspended element and the fixed part of the substrate. One or more fluid confinement structures are configured to permit movement of the damping structure within a limited portion of the gap and to confine a viscoelastic fluid to the limited portion of the gap.

摘要: A micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) device includes a mirror; at least one hinge; an electrostatic comb structure; and a control device. The control device causes, for a period of time, a voltage to be supplied to the electrostatic comb structure to cause the electrostatic comb structure to tilt the mirror about the at least one hinge in a particular direction. The control device causes, after the period of time and at an instant of time, the voltage to cease being supplied to the electrostatic comb structure. A tilt angle of the mirror, at the first instant of time, is less than a maximum tilt angle of the mirror in the particular direction. An angular momentum of the mirror, at the instant of time, is greater than zero kilogram meters squared per second in the particular direction.

摘要: A method for manufacturing a MEMS device includes forming a first solid body by forming, on a substrate, a layered structure having a thickness of a value comprised between 4 and 10 μm, with the layered structure having a first surface that is uniformly flat or planar throughout the extension thereof that faces the substrate. The method further includes forming, on a second surface of the layered structure opposite to the first surface in a direction, multiple transducer devices. The method then proceeds with coupling the first solid body to a supporting structure, and completely removing the substrate to expose said uniformly flat or planar surface.

摘要: A system and method for precisely positioning a moveable structure in a micro-electromechanical system (MEMS). The system includes a substrate and a moveable device structure supported on the substrate. The device structure is moveable from an initial position to a deployment position at a predetermined offset angle to the substrate. A moveable anchor structure is supported on the substrate in proximity to the device structure. The anchor structure is locked to the device structure when the device structure is moved to the deployment position.
