  • Abstract
    A novel microelectromechanical stage with one uniaxial set of combs capable of 2-D actuation is presented. A polymer microlens array (MLA) is mounted vertically onto the stage. Driven at resonance, the stage deflects 124 μm out of plane and 34 μm in plane. Finally, laser beam steering is demonstrated using two cascaded MLAs.
