19. Micro-Optical-Electro-Mechanical Devices
nMicromachining Technique allows to fabricatemechanical microstructures monolithically on thesame chip as electronic and optical devices.
nSuch devices are called micro-optical-electro-mechanical devices or systems (MOEMs).

n There are 3 types of MOEMs or MEMs
n Sensors: for detecting or measuring someproperty
n Actuators: have moving parts
n Optical elements: without moving parts

19.1 Basic Equations of Mechanics19.1.1 Axial Stress and Strainn A solid bar of initial length = L0, andn Diameter = D.n Tensile force = F is uniformly applied to the
end of the bar.n The bar will lengthen by an amount = ΔLn The axial strain εa = ΔL / L0n The stress σ = F/Area = F / (πD/2)2
n Break pointn Hooke’s Law σ = εEn E: Young’s modulus, the slope of stress-
strain curven Shear stress and strain also follow such
equations.n Poisson’s ratio ν = - εl / εa

19.1.2 Thin Membranesn Usually used in MEMs pressure or vibration sensors.n Deflection type: using rotational mirrors to measure
pressure or vibration by the deflection of light beams.n Reflection type: converting electrical or magnetic energy
into mechanical motion of mirrors to cause phase shift ormodulation of optical beams.
n Square membrane with side length = a, thickness = t,Young’s modulus = E, density = ρ, Poisson’s ratio = ν,pressure = P, and maximum deflection = Wmax
n Wmax= 0.001265 Pa4/D,n D = Et3/12(1- ν2) flexural rigidityn σl = 0.3081 P(a/t)2 longitudinal stressn σt = νσl maximum transverse stressn F0 = (1.654t/a2)[E/ρ(1- ν2)]1/2 resonant frequency

19.1.3 Cantilever Beamsn Deflection of beams depends on the magnitude of the
force and the nature of the distribution of the force.n Cantilever beam fixed at one end (x = 0), length = L, width
= a, thickness = t, Young’s modulus = E, density = ρ

n Point loadn Load force = Q, at x = Ln The deflection W(Q,x) = Qx2(3L-x)/6EIn σmax = QLt/2I maximum stressn The frequency of fundamental vibrational
