Abstract
A laser beam microdeflector which is fully integrated on a silicon substrate is presented. The design combines a steering system of cylindrical microlenses and a set of electrostatic combs. Both mechanical and optical parts are etched into a silica layer to provide a simple technological process and widen the operational wavelength range. Furthermore, the design, associated with silicon surface micromachining technology, enables more than 700 chips to be produced on a 100 mm diameter wafer
