Research abstract
The proposed work will develop micromirror arrays for VLWIR applications. Key challenges include the need for large piston stroke and compatibility with cryogenic conditions. For the proposed SBIR project, MicroAssembly is leveraging technologies developed under the DARPA CCIT program, as well as ongoing collaboration with industrial partners. The key to the proposed work is MicroAssembly's high yield fabrication process that enables integration of MEMS devices. This fabrication process has been utilized for the development of many MEMS devices, including high-g accelerometers, low-g accelerometers, resonators, and RF MEMS switches. Key military applications include free space communications, imaging, targeting and laser IRCM
