  • Abstract
    This invited paper covers the development of UV written MEMS cantilevers on silica-on-silicon. The work uses novel fabrication tools including physical micromachining and UV laser direct writing. Each cantilever contains an optical waveguide and by actuating the cantilevers we have demonstrated optical attenuation operation in an array format.
