Abstract: A system and method for precisely positioning a moveable structure in a micro-electromechanical system (MEMS). The system includes a substrate and a moveable device structure supported on the substrate. The device structure is moveable from an initial position to a deployment position at a predetermined offset angle to the substrate. A moveable anchor structure is supported on the substrate in proximity to the device structure. The anchor structure is locked to the device structure when the device structure is moved to the deployment position.

Abstract: A movable device includes a movable portion including a reflecting surface; a pair of drive beams to support the movable portion rotatably around a predetermined rotation axis with the movable portion disposed between the pair of drive beams; and a support portion configured to support the pair of drive beams. The support portion has a light passing portion on each of both sides of the movable portion in a direction intersecting with the rotation axis in a plane along the reflecting surface in a state in which the movable portion is not rotated, the light passing portion allowing light reflected by the reflecting surface to pass through the light passing portion.

Abstract: A micromechanical structure has a first micromechanical element, a second micromechanical element and a torsion spring arrangement having a first torsion spring element, having a first center line, mechanically connected to the first micromechanical element at a first contact region and to the second micromechanical element at a second contact region, and having a second torsion spring element, having a second center line, mechanically connected to the first micromechanical member at a third contact region and to the second micromechanical member at a fourth contact region in order to connect the first micromechanical member and the second micromechanical member to be movable relative to each other. A distance between the first and second center lines, starting from the first and third contact regions toward the second and fourth contact regions, decreases in a first portion and increases in a second portion. In a rest position of the micromechanical structure, the first and second torsion spring elements are arranged without contact to each other.

Abstract: Disclosed are an electrostatically driven comb structure of an MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical System), a micro-mirror using the same, and a preparation method therefor. The surface of a comb of the electrostatically driven comb structure of the MEMS has an insulating layer, and the insulating layers on the surfaces of adjacent combs are the same type of insulating layers or different insulating layers; the micro-mirror with the electrostatically driven comb structure of the MEMS successively includes a substrate, an isolating layer and a device layer from bottom to top; the method for manufacturing the micro-mirror prepares the insulating layers by high temperature oxidization, plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition, low pressure chemical vapor deposition, atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition, physical deposition, atomic layer deposition or stepwise heterogeneous deposition; same or different insulating layers are obtained on the surfaces of the driving comb and the ground comb; when the driving comb and the ground comb adsorb each other, the insulating layers on the surfaces of the two contact without forming a short circuit, so that a good insulating effect is achieved. The electrostatically driven MEMS micro-mirror capable of preventing adsorptive damage provided by the present invention features compact structure and simple process.

Abstract: An optical scanning system includes one or more Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) Micro-Mirror Arrays (MMAs) used to scan a field-of-view (FOV) over a field-of-regard (FOR). The MEMS MMA is configured such that optical radiation from each point in the FOV does not land on or originate from out-of-phase mirror segments and a diffraction limited resolution of the optical system is limited by the size of the entrance pupil and not by the size of individual mirrors.

An optical function portion is provided on one surface of the movable portion and a rib portion is provided on the other surface of the movable portion. The rib portion includes eight extending portions of first to eighth extending portions. When setting directions in which the first to eighth extending portions extend as first to eighth extending directions respectively, and setting an angle between the first and second extending directions as a first angle, an angle between the third and fourth extending directions as a second angle, an angle between the fifth and sixth extending directions as a third angle, and an angle between the seventh and eighth extending directions as a fourth angle, each of the first and second angle is larger than each of the third and fourth angle.
