Time and frequency response of two-arm micromachined thermal actuators

This paper examines the time and frequency response characteristics of two-arm micromachined thermal actuators. Two types of thermal actuators are considered: hot/cold arm actuators and 'V' or 'chevron' shaped actuators. A heat transfer equation governing the temperature profile...
