Abstract

See full text

The invention provides a micro-electro-mechanical-system (MEMS) mirror device, comprising: a mirror having a 2-dimensional rotational T-shaped hinge at a first end, and having a flexible connection at a second end opposite the first end. The invention also provides a MEMS mirror device, comprising: a mirror having a 2-dimensional rotational T-shaped hinge at a first end; and a vertical actuator connected to the 2-dimensional T-shaped hinge through a rigid connection. The invention also provides a MEMS mirror device, comprising: a mirror connected to a first end of a rotational actuator through bending springs at a first end, and having a torsional spring at a second end opposite the first end; a movable cantilever connected to the mirror through the torsional spring; and a support structure connected to the first end and a second end of the rotational actuator through torsional springs and connected to the movable cantilever.
