US Patent:
6498870, Dec 24, 2002
Filed:
Apr 20, 1998
Appl. No.:
09/063644
Inventors:
Ming Wu - Pacific Palisades CA
Li Fan - San Diego CA
Anis Husain - San Diego CA
Assignee:
OMM, Inc. - San Diego CA
International Classification:
G02B 626
US Classification:
385 18, 385 16, 385 25
Abstract:
A micromachined plate called a torsion plate, selectively pivots upon a substrate responsively to electrical force so as to move an attached micromirror in a same plane; thereby to accurately selectively intercept, and to reflect, a light beam that is moving parallel to the substrate; forming thus an optomechanical switch The electrical force may be electromagnetic in nature or, preferably, electrostatic. In various embodiments the pivoting torsion plate with the micromirror affixed may be (i) biased off the substrate by a three-dimensional structure and/or by a âreshapedâ torsion beam (ii) bent as plate and operated push OR pull, push AND pull, or push AND push, in a rocking operation, (iii) elevated above the substrate upon a self-assembling âmicro-elevator structureâ and/or (iv) moved greatly in angular position by action of a âmicro-flapâ A new design spring-loaded landing electrode and a torsion microhinge - further enhance performance. The micromachined, or Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS), optomechanical switch so formed is both fast and accurate to switch light over large angles up to 180Â while being highly resistant to sticking, or âstictionâ.

Filed:
Jan 17, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/053399
Inventors:
Ming C. Wu - Pacific Palisades CA
Li Fan - Rowland Heights CA
Anis Husain - San Diego CA
Assignee:
OMM, Inc. - San Diego CA
International Classification:
G02B 626
US Classification:
385 18, 385 16, 385 25
Abstract:

The switch further includes a micromirror having an orientated reflective surface, mounted to the micromachined plate and an electrical source coupled to at least one of the electrode and the micromachined plate.

Current-Controlled Polarization Switching Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser

View page
US Patent:
7016381, Mar 21, 2006
Filed:
Oct 14, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/686208
Inventors:
Anis Husain - San Diego CA, US
Ashok V. Krishnamoorthy - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
Ziva, Inc. - San Diego CA
International Classification:
H01S 3/13
H01S 3/08
US Classification:
372 29013, 372 98, 372 99
Abstract:
A fast current-controlled polarization switching VCSEL with two independent intra-cavity p-contact electrodes and two independent intra-cavity n-contact electrodes positioned along the four sides of the symmetric aperture such that there are two independent p- and n-contact pairs placed on opposite sides of the aperture in a non-overlapping configuration. The anisotropy resulting from the unidirectional current flow causes the light output to be polarized perpendicular to the direction of current flow. A VCSEL driver circuit switches the polarization state of the output light by using the two orthogonal pairs of non-overlapping intra-cavity contacted electrodes to change the direction of current flow into the VCSEL aperture by 90 degrees.
