Fabrication and Packaging of Electromagnetic 2D MEMS Scanning Mirror

Article Preview

Abstract:

The scanning mirror has two gimbals structure, which are supported perpendicularly to each other by torsion beams. Dual-axis movement of the mirror is achieved by the tilt of inner and outer structures, respectively. The electromagnetic 2D MEMS scanning mirror is fabricated using a bulk silicon process, mainly including the wet etching, electroplating and ICP dry etching process. The permanent magnets are packaged together with the electromagnetic 2D MEMS scanning mirror in a compact size of 18×28×28mm3. The electromagnetic 2D MEMS scanning mirror has advantages of small volume, low voltage and high frequency, which has a broad application in sensor networks, target detection and optical imaging.
