Patent abstract
To reduce cross-talk between adjacent hot electrodes, the present invention provides a ground plane, which extends beneath each side of a MEMS mirror platform covering opposite edges of a hot electrode along each side thereof. The ground plane includes an overhang section extending between the mirror platform and the hot electrode forming a first gap between the hot electrode and the overhang section, and a second gap between the overhang section and the mirror platform. The method of the present invention enables highly accurate construction using lithographic patterning and deep reactive ion etching (DRIE).
