Parametric Resonance in Electrostatically Actuated Micromirrors

TL;DR: This work considers an electrostatically actuated torsional micromirror, a key element of recent optical microdevices, and shows that the mirror motion is an example of parametric resonance, activated when the drive frequency is twice the natural frequency of the system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonlinear Response of PZT-Actuated Resonant Micromirrors

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on various sources of nonlinearities induced by the interaction with the surrounding fluid and by occurrence of geometric large transformations in piezo-micromirrors with large opening angles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mode Coupling and Parametric Resonance in Electrostatically Actuated Micromirrors

TL;DR: It is shown that, for specific geometrical features of the mirror, parametric resonance simultaneously activates a spurious yaw mode, and a numerical model is developed capable of capturing the key phenomena and of providing guidelines for a robust design.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Piezoelectric MEMS mirrors for the next generation of small form factor AR glasses

TL;DR: In this article , two compact MEMS mirrors with piezoelectric actuation are presented: a 27.5kHz resonant mirror (MMR40100) with 1.1mm diameter and 56 degrees FOV and a quasi-static mirror (MML40100), working at 60Hz with 2.45x1.44mm2 reflective area and 32deg FOV.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Fast and Accurate Predictions of MEMS Micromirrors Nonlinear Dynamic Response Using Direct Computation of Invariant Manifolds

TL;DR: The Direct Parametrisation of Invariant Manifolds (DPIM) as discussed by the authors is an innovative technique for model order reduction suitable for Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) that operate at resonance, as most gyroscopes and scanning micromirrors.
