Problems solved by technology

[0015] ●Because many cantilevers are folded for sufficient displacement, the resonant frequency is low and the structure is susceptible to perturbations
[0016] ●Because the center of the mirror does not match the center of the device, approximately double the space is required when installing MEMS so that the center of the mirror is placed inside a cylindrical tube such as an endoscope

Abstract

A mirror driving device can include: a mirror part having a reflection surface configured to reflect light; mirror support parts formed at portions of the mirror part diagonal to each other; and a first actuator and a second actuator placed so as to surround the mirror part, wherein the first actuator and the second actuator each have a structure in which a plurality of first piezoelectric cantilevers with a longitudinal direction oriented to a direction of a first axis and a plurality of second piezoelectric cantilevers with a longitudinal direction oriented to a second axis are coupled together so as to be folded, and each of the first actuator and the second actuator has one end connected to the mirror part via a relevant one of the mirror support parts and another end connected to a fixing part near the mirror support part to which the one end is coupled.

Description

technical field [0001] The subject matter of the present disclosure relates to a mirror driving device and a method of controlling the same, and in particular, to a structure of a micromirror device suitable for an optical deflector used in optical scanning or the like and a technique for controlling driving of the micromirror device. Background technique [0002] Microscanners (hereafter referred to as "MEMS (microelectromechanical systems) scanners manufactured by using silicon (Si) microfabrication processes) are characterized by small size and low power consumption compared with polymer mirrors etc., which are conventional optical scanning Module. For this reason, MEMS scanners are expected to be widely used in everything from laser projectors to optical diagnostic scanners such as optical coherence tomography (OCT). [0003] Among various schemes for driving MEMS scanners, a piezoelectric driving scheme using deformation of a piezoelectric substance can achieve a large ...
