Problems solved by technology

The first thin-film electrode 185 of the thin-film actuated mirror 101 as a mirror is divided into an actuating part 220 and a reflective part 230 by a horizontal strip 187, and for an electric field applied thereto, only the actuating part 220 is deformed and the reflective part 230 is deformed. remain horizontal, so the tilt angle of the thin-film actuated mirror 100 is limited
[0027] Furthermore, the horizontal bands 187 reduce the overall optical efficiency of the thin film actuated mirror 101

Abstract

An inventive array of M * N thin film actuated mirrors is provided with an active matrix, an array of actuating structures and an array of thin film mirrors, wherein the actuating structure is provided with a pair of side actuators and the center actuator, both ends of the side actuators being fixed to the active matrix, the upper thin film electrode of the side actuator electrically being connected to the lower thin film electrode of the center actuator to thereby function as a common bias electrode, the lower thin film electrode of the side actuator being connected to the upper thin film electrode of the center actuator to thereby function as a signal electrode. When the electric field is applied in the thin film actuated mirror, the side actuator expands and the center actuator contracts upward, allowing the thin film actuated mirror to tilt an increased angle.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an optical projection system, and more particularly, to an array of M×N thin film actuated mirrors used in the system and a method of manufacturing the same, wherein each thin film actuated mirror can have a larger inclination. Background technique [0002] Among the various existing video display systems, known optical projection systems can provide large-scale high-quality displays. In such an optical projection system, light from a lamp is uniformly illuminated, for example, on an array of M x N actuated mirrors, where each mirror is connected to each actuator. These actuators may be made of electrodisplaceable materials capable of deforming in response to an electric field applied thereto, such as piezoelectric or electrostrictive materials. [0003] The reflected light beams from each mirror are incident on an aperture such as a diaphragm. By applying an electrical signal to each actuator, the relative position ...
