  • Patent number: 9588337
    Abstract: A MEMS micromirror (30) is presented including a frame (60) with a mirror body (50) arranged therein, a cantilever beam assembly (70) and vertical support beams (40). The mirror body (50) is rotatable around a rotation axis (58) extending in a plane (x-y) defined by the frame (60). The cantilever beam assembly (70) has a longitudinal direction and extends within said plane. The vertical support beams (40) are connected between the mirror body (50) and the frame (60) along the rotation axis (58). The cantilever beam assembly (70) has a cantilever beam (72), being coupled at a first end via relief means (74) to the frame (60) and fixed at a second end (722) to the mirror body (50). The cantilever beam (72) has a thickness, perpendicular to a plane of the frame (60), that is smaller than its width in the plane of the frame (60).

    Abstract: 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).
