Paper-Based Bi-Material Cantilever Actuator Bending Behavior and Modeling [PDF]

Micromachines, 2023
In this paper, the behavior of the Bi-Material Cantilever (B-MaC) response deflection upon fluidic loading was experimentally studied and modeled for bilayer strips. A B-MaC consists of a strip of paper adhered to a strip of tape.

Elimination of initial stress-induced curvature in a micromachined bi-material composite-layered cantilever

Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering, 2013
Micro-devices with a bi-material-cantilever (BMC) commonly suffer initial curvature due to the mismatch of residual stress. Traditional corrective methods to reduce the residual stress mismatch generally involve the development of different material deposition recipes.

Wafer-level vacuum packaging for an optical readout bi-material cantilever infrared FPA

SPIE Proceedings, 2013
In this paper, we report the design and fabrication of an uncooled infrared (IR) focal plane array (FPA) on quartz substrate and the wafer-level vacuum packaging for the IR FPA in view of an optical readout method. This FPA is composed of bi-material cantilever array which fabricated by the Micro-Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) technology, and the ...
