Abstract

See full text

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus for display elements configured for rotational movement. A display element can include a light modulator and a first electrostatic actuator configured to induce rotational movement of the light modulator in a plane parallel to a substrate over which the display element is manufactured. A first anchor can be coupled to the substrate and positioned adjacent to a proximal end of the light modulator. A first drive beam electrode can be coupled to a second anchor. A first load beam electrode can be coupled at a first end to the first anchor and coupled at a second end to a first edge of the light modulator at a point closer to a distal end of the light modulator than to the proximal end of the light modulator.
