Abstract
Hyperspectral imaging using micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) is investigated. A Fabry-Perot cavity is created using a silicon nitride membrane suspended over a variable length air gap, to support a distributed Bragg reflector. Models of membrane behaviour and reflector optical performance are given.
