多台阶平板静电驱动的高占空比微镜阵列研制
摘要
为了实现在限定驱动电压下获得大镜面尺寸大扭转角度的微镜阵列。提出了一种多台阶平板静电驱动结构的微镜阵列。理论分析了多台阶平板结构与平行平板结构在静电驱动时的区别。研究了多台阶平板结构的工艺制作并采用体硅加工工艺技术制作了多台阶平板静电驱动的微镜阵列。获得了微镜面尺寸达到600μm x 200μm,包含52个微镜面排布,占空比高达97%的微镜阵列。通过测试表明,制作的微镜面结构在驱动电压为164伏时可以实现最大1.1度的扭转角度,相对于传统的平行平板静电驱动结构大大降低了驱动电压。
Abstract
Micro-mirrors array is one of the most important devices in the Micro-Optical Electro Mechanical system (MOMES) field. It can be widely used in various macro optical areas
such as Optical communication
Adaptive optics
projection or imaging
etc. In order to obtain a micro-mirror array with large torsional angle and large size of micro-mirror under limited driving voltage
in this paper
we propose and demonstrate a novel MOEMS micro-mirror array with multi-terraced-plate structure. The difference characterization of electrostatic driver between the multi-terraced-plate structure and parallel-plate structure are analyzed. The multi-terraced-plate structure as a key fabrication process of micro-mirror array has been researched and a bulk Micro-mechanical technology is used for fabricating the Micro-mirror array. Micro-mirror size is 600 by 200μm
and contains 52 micromirror array with a high fill-factor in excess of 97% have been achieved. The test results show that the micro-mirror have a maximum torsional angle about 1.1 degrees with a 164v driving voltage. In contrast with the traditional Parallel-plate structure
the multi-terraced-plate structure can greatly reduce the driving voltage.
