Abstract

Thermally actuated micromirrors fabricated using a standard CMOS process and one subsequent anisotropic silicon etch step are presented. The device consists of a mirror plate supported by bimorph cantilever beams. Even short beams show a large deflection effect. A theoretical analysis valid for n-morph bending beams has been derived and found to be consistent with experimental and computer-simulation results.
