Large Stepwise Discrete Microsystem Displacements Based on Electrostatic Bending Plate Actuation

We present the design, fabrication, and experimental characterization of microsystems achieving large and stepwise discrete displacements. The systems consist of electrostatic bending plate actuators linked in a chain with increasing electrode gaps to allow a stepwise system displacement. A derived...
