Recently proposed optical subsystems utilizing micro-electromechanical components are being developed for use in photonic crossconnects, optical add/drop multiplexers, and spectral equalizers. Common elements to these subsystems are electrostatically actuated micromechanical tilt mirrors that steer optical [...]
