Abstract: A projection system, a spatial light modulator, and a method for forming a MEMS device are disclosed. The spatial light modulator can have two substrates bonded together with one of the substrates comprising a micromirror array. The two substrates can be bonded at the wafer level after depositing a getter material and/or solid or liquid lubricant on one or both of the wafers. The wafers can be bonded together hermetically if desired, and the pressure between the two substrates can be below atmosphere.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for selectively updating memory cells of a memory cell array are provided. The memory cells of each row of the memory cell array are provided with a plurality of wordlines. Memory cells of the row are activated and updated by separated wordlines. In an application of display systems using memory cell arrays for controlling the pixels of the display system and pulse-width-modulation (PWM) technique for displaying grayscales, the pixels can be modulated by different PWM waveforms. The perceived dynamic-false-contouring artifacts are reduced thereby. In another application, the provision of multiple wordlines enables precise measurements of voltages maintained by memory cells of the memory cell array.

Abstract: A method and apparatus (100) of the present invention is particularly for use in display systems having a spatial light modulator (110) in which the pixels present asymmetrical switching delays. For a desired illumination intensity of a pixel, a series of pulse-width-modulation bit values for the pixel is determined based at least in part upon a parameter that characterizes the asymmetrical transition behavior of the pixel between states.

Abstract: The present invention provides a microstructure device comprising multiple substrates with the components of the device formed on the substrates. In order to maintain uniformity of the gap between the substrates, a plurality of pillars is provided and distributed in the gap so as to prevent decrease of the gap size. The increase of the gap size can be prevented by bonding the pillars to the components of the microstructure. Alternatively, the increase of the gap size can be prevented by maintaining the pressure inside the gap below the pressure under which the microstructure will be in operation. Electrical contact of the substrates on which the micromirros and electrodes are formed can be made through many ways, such as electrical contact areas, electrical contact pads and electrical contact springs.
