Abstract:
A microelectromechanical structure with electrothermal actuation including a fixed part, a moveable part, a first electrothermal actuating beam enabling an electric current to flow from the fixed part to the moveable part and a second electrothermal actuating beam enabling an electric current to flow from the fixed part to the moveable part, the beams being mechanically connected to the moveable part enabling a displacement of the moveable part by electrothermal actuation, an electrically conductive connecting element connecting the moveable part to the fixed part, a first connector for connecting the first actuating beam to a first polarisation source and a second connector for connecting the second actuating beam to a second polarisation source, such that the first and the second can be polarised differently and separately.
