Abstract: The present invention provides merged-mask processes for fabricating micromachined devices in general and mirrored assemblies for use in optical scanning devices in particular. A method of fabricating a three dimensional structure, comprising, providing a substrate, applying a layer of a first masking material onto the substrate, applying a layer of a second masking material onto the layer of the first masking material, patterning the layer of the second masking material, applying a layer of a third masking material onto the portions not covered by the patterned layer of the second masking material, the layer of the third masking material is at least as thick as the combined thickness of the layers of the first and second masking materials, patterning the layers of the first and third masking materials, etching the exposed portions of the substrate, etching the exposed portions of the layers of the first and third masking materials and etching the exposed portions of the substrate.

Abstract: An accelerometer (305) which comprises a measurement mass assembly having to p capacitor electrode (705), with one or more re-entrant openings or grooves (1405), a bottom capacitor electrode (805), with one or more re-entrant openings (1410), and/or a mass electrode pattern (910, 915), which also includes one or more re-entrant openings or grooves (1415, 1420). A re-entra nt opening or groove is an opening or groove formed in an element whereby the opening or groove is larger toward the center of the element than at the surface of the element. Re-entrant openings or grooves (1405, 1410, 1415, 1420) reduce fluid damping thereby reducing the amount of thermo-mechanical noise and permit increased sealing pressure of the accelerometer (305) there by lowering manufacturing costs and increasing production yields.

Abstract: An accelerometer (305) for measuring seismic data. The accelerometer (305) includes an integrated vent hole for use during a vacuum sealing process and a balanced metal pattern for reducing cap wafer bowing. The accelerometer (305) also includes a top cap press frame recess (405) and a bottom cap press frame recess (420) for isolating bonding pressures to specified regions of the accelerometer (305). The accelerometer (305) is vacuum-sealed and includes a balanced metal pattern (730) to prevent degradation of the performance of the accelerometer (305). A dicing process is performed on the accelerometer (305) to isolate the electrical leads of the accelerometer (305). The accelerometer (305) further includes overshock protection bumpers (720) and patterned metal electrodes to reduce stiction during the operation of the accelerometer (305).

Abstract: A depth control device 100 for an underwater cable 10 includes a rotary actuator 171 having a rotating output shaft connected to a swash plate 190. Rotation of the swash plate 190 by the actuator 171 causes a rocker arm 220 to pivot about an axis transverse to the axis of the output shaft. The rocker arm 220 is drivingly connected to a drive shaft 145 for rotating wings 140 about their pitch axes. The pitch axes of the wings 140 can be perpendicular to and intersecting the axis of the actuator output shaft, enabling the depth control device 100 to be extremely compact.
