Popis: New developments in digital mirror devices (DMDs) require suspension hinges with a good damping and high temperature stability. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) offer these unique properties. Herein it is shown how CNT hinges can be integrated in micromirrors. The image illustrates a micromirror with a CNT suspension, and a typical overdamped stepresponse (Q-factor < 0.5).
