Video Display System Schematic
Computer modulates a 10 mW 655 nm laser diode
The emerging beam hits the fast scanning mirror
The beam is then imaged to the slow scanning mirror

2fThe light is coupled into a single-mode fiber
…and the image is projected onto a screen
• Demonstration system used two mirrors on separate chips

Lessons for Adaptive Optics Standard processes and materials
• High-resolution optics
• Mechanical stability & reliability => electrostatic actuation
• Large-stroke actuation => Combdrives
Optical quality• SOI material
Integration • wafer bonding => optimization of optics,
mechanics and electronics
Novel functions - Diffractive optics• Spectral filtering??
