Precisely rectilinear electro-thermal microactuator using a high-aspect ratio microstructured Si/SU-8 composite

This paper presents a Si/SU-8 composite electro-thermal microactuator that can generate a precisely rectilinear in-plane stroke. The microactuator consists of a pair of electro-thermally activated composite bimorphs which are joined at their tips through a central Si beam. When activated, the centra...
