A robust lateral shift free (LSF) electrothermal micromirror with flexible multimorph beams

Abstract Electrothermal bimorph-based scanning micromirrors typically employ standard silicon dioxide (SiO2) as the electrothermal isolation material. However, due to the brittle nature of SiO2, such micromirrors may be incapable to survive even slight collisions, which greatly limits their applicat...
