Publication number: 20140300942Abstract: A MEMS micromirror (30) is presented including a frame (60) with a mirror body (50) arranged therein. The mirror body (50) is rotatable around a rotation axis (58) extending in a plane (x-y) defined by the frame (60). The MEMS micromirror (30) further includes at least one cantilever beam assembly (70) having a longitudinal direction and extending within said plane. The MEMS micromirror (30) also includes vertical support beams (40) connected between the mirror body (50) and the frame (60) along the rotation axis (58). The at least one cantilever beam assembly (70) has a cantilever beam (72) with a first and a second end (721, 722) and a relief means (74) at the first end (721) allowing for a translation of the cantilever beam (72) at its first end (721) in said longitudinal direction. The first end (721) is coupled via the relief means (74) to the frame (60) and the second end (722) is fixed to the mirror body (50).Type: ApplicationFiled: October 10, 2012Publication date: October 9, 2014Applicant: Innoluce B.V.Inventors: Hendrikus Wilhelmus Leonardus Antonius Maria Van Lierop, Matthijs Alexander Gerard Suijlen, Marijn Johannes Van Os
