Abstract: A MEMS transducer interacting with a fluid. The MEMS transistor includes: a layer stack of at least three MEMS layer structures in a layer sequence, an active MEMS layer structure being formed between a lower MEMS layer structure and an upper MEMS layer structure; at least one lamella formed in the active MEMS layer structure and deflectable laterally for interacting with the fluid; and a drive device for deflecting the movable lamella in a lateral direction perpendicular to the layer sequence, with a lower and/or upper electrode structure, which is formed adjacent to the active MEMS layer structure on the lower and/or upper MEMS layer structure. For applying an electrical voltage to the upper and/or lower electrode structure, a through-connection of the upper or lower MEMS layer structure is provided, which is electrically conductively connected to a contact element formed in the active MEMS layer structure.

Abstract: A micromechanical mirror device, a mirror system, and a method for producing a micromechanical mirror device are disclosed. The mirror device comprises a first mirror element, which is flat, and a second mirror element, which is flat. The first and second mirror elements are arranged substantially plane-parallel. An intermediate space between the first and second mirror elements has a lower index of refraction than one or both of the first mirror element and second mirror element. The first and second mirror elements are locally spaced apart from each other by at least one support structure. The support structure overlaps with the first and second mirror elements in an axial direction, which is perpendicular to the first and second mirror elements. The support structure includes a material that is different from a material from which one or both of the first and second mirror elements are formed.

Abstract: An optical switch includes a bus waveguide supported by a substrate, an actuation electrode supported by the substrate, the actuation electrode having fins that protrude in a direction perpendicular to the substrate and to the bus waveguide, and a reaction electrode having interdigitated fins configured to form a comb drive with the actuation electrode. When a voltage difference between the reaction electrode and the actuation electrode is less than a lower threshold, the reaction electrode is positioned a first distance from the bus waveguide, when the voltage difference between the reaction electrode and the actuation electrode is greater than an upper threshold, the reaction electrode is positioned a second distance from the bus waveguide, and the second distance is less than the first distance.

Abstract: An optical switch includes a first bus waveguide supported by a substrate, an optical antenna suspended over the first bus waveguide via a spring, and interdigitated electrodes coupling the substrate with optical antenna and configured to control a position of the optical antenna relative to the first bus waveguide. When a voltage difference applied to the interdigitated electrodes is less than a lower threshold, the optical antenna is at a first position offset from the first bus waveguide, when the voltage difference applied to the interdigitated electrodes is greater than an upper threshold, the optical antenna is at a second position offset from the first bus waveguide, and the offset at the second position is greater than at the first position.

Abstract: A method for operating a capacitive device. The method includes providing a pulsed readout signal having a pulse frequency at a readout signal channel, to which at least one capacitor unit of the capacitive device is electrically connected, and reading out the at least one capacitor unit of the capacitive device, which has a natural frequency with a natural frequency period duration tres, using the pulsed readout signal. Each voltage pulse of the pulsed readout signal is applied to the readout signal channel in n temporally offset voltage stages, n being a natural number greater than or equal to 2, and a time offset Δti is maintained between each two consecutively applied voltage stages in such a way that the following is true for at least one time offset Δti between the voltage stages: Δ t i = m * t res + t res n , m being a natural number greater than or equal to zero.

Abstract: A method for producing a multi-layer electrode system includes providing a carrier substrate having a recess in a top side of the carrier substrate. At least one wall of the recess is inclined in relation to a bottom side of the carrier substrate, which is opposite to the top side. The method also includes applying a multi-layer stack, which includes at least a first electrode layer, a second electrode layer, and a piezoelectric layer arranged between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer, to the top side of the carrier substrate. At least the wall and a bottom of the recess are covered by at least a portion of the multi-layer stack.
