摘要

This dissertation describes design, fabrication, and electromechanical characterization of a new kind of micromirror array that is capable of high spatial resolution, high speed control of an optical beam. The device is a micromachined reflective Spatial Light Modulator (SLM) made by integrating a segmented, movable micromirror array made using metal Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems (MEMS) fabrication techniques with Complementary-Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) driver electronics. The mirror is comprised of an array of 22,500 electrostatic actuators, each supporting a single mirror segment up to 775nm, which corresponds to 2pi modulation of optical phase for a reflected 1550nm wavelength communication laser beam. Each mirror segment is addressed through foundry-prefabricated CMOS driver electronics, which can provide 4-bit resolution phase control (i.e. 50nm surface-normal resolution)†.; Two major technical challenges are associated with direct modular integration of MEMS on CMOS; development of MEMS fabrication processes that do not damage underlying CMOS electronics, and manufacturing of optical quality micromirror components using multi-layer surface micromachining techniques. To overcome these challenges, foundry-prefabricated CMOS driver electronics were coated with a thick dielectric film, and then planarized by die-level Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP). Next, a manufacturing process was developed to interconnect between MEMS and CMOS layers. Finally, a low temperature metal and polymer MEMS process was developed to produce actuators and highly planar optical quality mirror segments. Significant contributions to the existing MEMS state-of-the-art embodied in this work include innovative processes for reducing effects of print-through, and a new method to control residual stress while avoiding permanent plastic deformation in structural film upon sacrificial removal. The developed manufacturing process is robust and promises low cost mass production.; Manufactured SLMs were shown to have a stroke of up to 900nm, less than lambda/30 surface non-planarity, 90% mirror fill factor, exceptional position repeatability, and reliability. Full integration was demonstrated by addressing mirror segments in a predetermined electrodes control pattern. Several tens of kilohertz operation was verified at the pixel level. Combined static and dynamic functioning test results promise ultimately a path to a greatly simplified open-loop Adaptive Optics (AO) system with unprecedented high precision and economy.; †A complementary graduate program led by Duk-Joong Kim focused on design and fabrication of the electronics for this project
