MEMS mirror S13124-01

Product catalog summary
Introduction
The S13124-01 is a miniature, high-performance MEMS mirror designed for two-dimensional laser scanning. It utilizes electromagnetic principles for operation, offering advantages over electrostatic or piezoelectric mirrors, such as lower voltage requirements and ease of use.

Structure and Principle
The MEMS mirror consists of a metallic coil on a silicon substrate, with a mirror inside the coil and a magnet beneath it. The current flowing through the coil generates a Lorentz force, tilting the mirror. This setup allows for two-dimensional scanning using springs formed by MEMS processing.

MEMS mirror S13124-01-1

Si photodiode MEMS mirror S13124-01 Miniature, high performance, linear mode Electromagnetically driven two-dimensional laser scanning MEMS mirror The S13124-01 is an electromagnetically driven mirror that incorporates our unique MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) technology. The device was made smaller by arranging the magnet beneath the mirror. A two-dimensional scanning was achieved in linear mode. Electrical current flowing in the coil surrounding the mirror produces a Lorentz force based on Fleming’s rule that drives the mirror. Hamamatsu MEMS mirrors offer a wide optical deflection angle and high mirror reflectivity. Two-dimensional scanning in linear mode Capable of vector scanning and step operation Machine vision Laser material processing Low voltage drive: suitable for installation on equipment Various laser scan units Laser measurement With window material: Prevents foreign matter contamination Evaluation circuit available: C15087 (sold separately) Structure and principle In a MEMS mirror, a metallic coil is formed on a single-crystal silicon, a mirror is formed inside the coil through MEMS processing, and a magnet is arranged beneath the mirror. Within a magnetic field generated by the magnet, electrical current flowing in the coil surrounding the mirror produces a Lorentz force based on Fleming’s rule that causes the mirror to tilt. In addition, the mirror can be driven two-dimensionally with the combination of two springs formed by MEMS processing. The path of the laser light incident on the mirror surface is varied in this way to scan and project. Compared to the electrostatic or piezoelectric driven mirrors, electromagnetically driven MEMS mirrors are lower voltage driven and easier to use.
