– MEMS Mirrors Moving in Many Modes for a Multitude of Markets

For nearly a quarter century of commercial manufacturing, the Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS)-based micro-mirrors produced by Texas Instruments Inc. have, by necessity, needed to innovate to stay relevant to various market demands. The highlights of which will be addressed here as well as a discussion of potential innovations to come. I will also share my thoughts on how Physicists trained in solid-state, surface-science, like myself, can contribute to the future of this technology.
