Effect of Metal Coating on Displacement of the Silicon Electrothermal V-Shaped Actuator

Electrothermal actuation is widely employed in MEMS systems, and the electrothermal V-shaped actuator (referred to as EVA) has garnered attention due to its stable output force. However, current EVAs in MEMS face the challenge of limited driving displacement. To investigate the impact of metal coati...
