  • Abstract
    We have designed, fabricated, and tested a V-shaped torsion bar for use with a comb-driven micromirror. This torsion bar suppressed undesired sticking of the comb teeth, and enabled a large rotational angle and a low drive voltage. We observed 5-degree rotation of a comb-driven micromirror with a drive voltage of 90 V.
