Soft electrothermal actuators using silver nanowire heaters

Nanoscale, 2017
Low-voltage and extremely flexible electrothermal bimorph actuators were fabricated in a simple, efficient and scalable process. The bimorph actuators were made of flexible silver nanowire (AgNW) based heaters, which exhibited a fast heating rate of 18 °C s-1 and stable heating performance with large bending.

A MEMS VOA Using Electrothermal Actuators

Journal of Lightwave Technology, 2007
A comprehensive study of electrothermally driven microelectromechanical system (MEMS) variable optical attenuator (VOA) devices using an H-shaped structure is presented in this paper. Based on its unique structural design, a retroreflection-type VOA of smaller footprint is realized.

An Electrothermally Actuated MEMS Braille Dot

2019
With some recent attempts on development of micro tactile displays, the realization of portable Braille is becoming more feasible. Such tactile displays can help visually impaired individuals to read and comprehend patterns by using the sense of touch. The current proposed designs for such tactile displays mainly use fluid expansion to enhance the out ...

Development of an all-metal electrothermal actuator and its applications

SPIE Proceedings, 2004
The in-plane motion of microelectrothermal actuator (''heatuator'') has been analyzed for Si-based and metallic devices. It was found that the lateral deflection of a heatuator made of a Ni metal is about ;60% larger than that of a Si-based actuator under the same power consumption.
