2D PZT MEMS Resonant Scanner Using a Three-Mask Process

This work presents the design, simulation, fabrication, and characterization of a novel architectural compact two-dimensional (2D) resonant MEMS scanning mirror actuated by thin-film lead zirconate titanate (PZT). The device employs an innovative mechanically coupled dual-axis architecture fabricated using a three-mask process on an SOI-PZT deposited wafer, significantly reducing system complexity while achieving high performance. The scanner integrates a 1 $\times$ 1.4 mm oval mirror within a 7 $\times$ 4.7 mm die, actuated by PZT thin-film elements optimized for resonant operation at 3.6 kHz (vertical) and 54.2 kHz (horizontal) under 12 V$_{\mathrm{p-p}}$ periodic pulse driving. The system achieves optical scan angles of 4.8$^\circ$ and 11.5$^\circ$ in vertical and horizontal directions, respectively, with quality factors of 750 (vertical) and 1050 (horizontal). These values contribute to high scanning bandwidth-efficiency products of 24.2 deg$\cdot$mm$\cdot$kHz (vertical) and 623 deg$\cdot$mm$\cdot$kHz (horizontal), among the higher values reported for 2D PZT-MEMS scanners. Finite element analysis confirmed minimal stress and mirror deformation, and experimental validation demonstrated excellent agreement with simulation results. This architecture demonstrates the feasibility of high-resolution laser scanning, as required in applications such as OCT, LiDAR, and displays, by achieving performance levels in line with those used in such systems.
