摘要
We report on a novel vertical torsion mirror fabricated by surface-micromachining for optical scanner applications. Driven by an electrostatic actuator, the scanning mirror has a resonant frequency of 0.5 kHz and an optical scan range of 26 degrees. The maximum achievable number of resolvable spots for this 300 mu m x 250 mu m scanner is 238.
