  • Projective MEMS device for a picoprojector of the flying spot type and related manufacturing method
    Patent number: 10895740
    Abstract: A projective MEMS device, including: a fixed supporting structure made at least in part of semiconductor material; and a number of projective modules. Each projective module includes an optical source, fixed to the fixed supporting structure, and a microelectromechanical actuator, which includes a mobile structure and varies the position of the mobile structure with respect to the fixed supporting structure. Each projective module further includes an initial optical fiber, which is mechanically coupled to the mobile structure and optically couples to the optical source according to the position of the mobile structure.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 13, 2018
    Date of Patent: January 19, 2021
    Assignee: STMICROELECTRONICS S.r.l.
    Inventors: Guido Chiaretti, Fabio Luigi Grilli, Roberto Carminati, Bruno Murari, Lorenzo Sarchi
