    Abstract: One or more cavities are formed in the bonding surfaces of one, all, or s ome of the elements to be bonded. These cavities serve as receptacles for th e bonding material and are where the bonds are localized. The cavities are o f sufficient size and shape so that their volume is greater than the volume of bonding material forming the bond. This ensures that when the elements ar e brought into contact with one another to mate, the bonding material, which can flow prior to solidifying into a bond, will flow into the cavities and will not impede the separation of the parts. This allows the parts to be mat ed with nominally zero separation. Once solidified, the bonding material for ms a localized bond inside each cavity. Different cavity shapes, such as, re ctangular, circular, or any other shape that can be injected or filled with adhesive material may be used.

    Abstract: A MEMS-based mirror is provided with trenches between adjacent electrodes in order to be able to withstand relatively high applied voltages, and thus has a substantially reduced exposure to uncontrolled surface potentials. The MEMS-based mirror, thus avoids voltage drifts and has an improved mirror position stability. The trench dimensions are selected such that the voltage applied between each adjacent pair of electrodes stays within predefined limits. An insulating layer, such as silicon dioxide, electrically isolates each pair of adjacent electrodes. Each insulting layer extends partially above an associated trench and is characterized by the same height and width dimensions.

    Abstract: An array of MEMS devices is formed on a planar substrate having in each of a plurality of annular regions or sectors a plurality of MEMS mirrors of substantially identical structure, wherein the MEMS mirrors in each region have an identical pre-tilt. The pre-tilt is achieved by embedding each dual-axis tiltable mirror within a pre-tilted microplatform or gimbal. In a specific embodiment, one microplatform of a preselected pre-tilt is provided for each micromirror and an underlying electrode is provided having a shape conforming with the pre-tilt. In a specific embodiment, the annular regions are contiguous elliptical or ovoidal regions. By pre-tilt, it is meant that the rest state or nonactuated state of the micro-mirror is such that a reflected beam from a fixed source is directed to the center of a target array.
