Abstract

See full text

A micromechanical actuator includes a movable first spring element having metal and/or silicon. The first spring element is fitted at a first point and can move freely at a second point. A second spring element connected to the first spring element has silicon and is partially arranged on an electrically insulating material which is applied to a substrate. The second spring element is arranged at a distance from the substrate above the substrate on a first plane, and the first spring element is arranged above the second spring element on a second plane which is at a distance from the first plane such that the first and second spring elements can move with respect to the substrate. The actuator has a third spring element which is mechanically coupled to the first spring element. The elastic deformation of the second spring element can be induced by a length change of the third spring element.
