Microassembly technology is utilized to construct this platform, which consists of a MEMS chevron-beam type microactuator and a micro pyramidal polygon reflector. The proposed electrothermal microactuators with a two-stage electrothermal cascaded chevron-beam driving mechanism provide displacement amplification, and thus driving a highly reflective micro-pyramidal polygon reflector to rotate a large angle for light beam scan. This MEMS platform is ultra-compact, supports circumferential imaging capability, and is suitable for endoscopic optical coherence tomography (EOCT) application, for example intravascular cancer detection. © 2012 IEEE. | Source Title: | Proceedings of the IEEE International Conference on Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/73009 | ISBN: | 9781467303248 | ISSN: | 10846999 | DOI: | 10.1109/MEMSYS.2012.6170331 |
