Abstract: X-ray imaging systems are provided that include an X-ray source and an X-ray detector. A filtering device is positioned between the X-ray source and the X-ray detector and includes one or more micro-filters each adapted to transition between an X-ray filtering position and an X-ray non-filtering position. A controller is programmed to control operation of the micro-filters.

Abstract: A system includes a plurality of micro-electromechanical switches including a plurality of gates, coupled to each other. Each micro-electromechanical switch includes a beam electrode disposed on a substrate. A beam includes an anchor portion coupled to the beam electrode. The beam includes a first beam portion extending from the anchor portion along a first direction; and a second beam portion extending from the anchor portion along a second direction opposite to the first direction. A first control electrode and a first contact electrode are disposed on the substrate, facing the first beam portion. A second control electrode and a second contact electrode are disposed on the substrate, facing the second beam portion. The first control electrode and the second control electrode are coupled to form a gate among the plurality of gates. The plurality of micro-electromechanical switches is arranged in at least one of a series arrangement, parallel arrangement.
