Abstract

An electrothermal micromirror with an aperture size of 1 mm × 1.2 mm has been developed. The mirror can tilt as much as 21° with a 15V DC voltage. High linear scanning efficiency is obtained by using a special drive voltage waveform. The waveform is characterized by two parameters which are determined experimentally.
