  • Abstract
    A new three-axis electromagnetically-actuated micromirror using an SOI wafer is proposed and fabricated. This micromirror can be used for optical switches, optical scanners and alignment modules with low voltage operation and high coupling efficiency due to three degrees of freedom.
