  • Abstract
    An electromagnetic bistable microactuator fabricated on a single wafer is presented. Its overall size is 3×3×1×mm. Tested results show that the bistable state of the device is realised by 5 V voltage pulse and held by the permanent magnet without current. The response time is 0.96×ms with a large displacement of 160××m.
