Fraunhofer IPMS, Dresden carries out customer specific developments in fields of microelectronic and micro systems technology serving as a business partner that supports the transition of innovative ideas into new products. Fraunhofer IPMS develops and fabricates modern MEMS and OLED devices in its own clean room facilities. In addition to R&D services it offers ramp-up within a pilot production. With modern equipment and about 200 scientists and engineers, the range of projects and expertise covers sensor and actuator systems, microscanner, spatial light modulators, lifetronics as well as organic materials and systems.

At Photonics West 2011 (North Hall, Booth 4421) Fraunhofer IPMS presents:
 

VarioS – a microscanner construction set

Online configuration of customer specific microscanners and short lead time for demonstrators at low costs

The Fraunhofer IPMS Microscanner Construction Set VarioS allows, in astonishing simple way, to configurate microscanners online and have demonstrators delivered within a few weeks at low costs. Testing applications and exploring new markets now becomes a lot easier.

The path to a customized microscanner is quick and easy: at www.micro-mirrors.com specifications for an individual device can be defined online with the Scanner-Configurator. Also, customers are able to choose from more then 150 readily fabricated designs in stock.

Essential device characteristics such as:

• Microscanner type (1D, 2D)
• Mirror diameter ≤ 3 mm
• Scan frequency (0.1 - 50 kHz)
• Mechanical mirror deflection < ±30°
• Dynamic optical mirror planarity

can be specified. The Scanner-Configurator also provides product and price information. If desired, specifications then can be send to Fraunhofer IPMS via a web email form and a quotation can be requested. Customers receive a quotation within a period of two weeks.

After ordering, the lead time for demonstrators is three to nine weeks. Lead time depends on, whether a fitting design is

• In stock (3 weeks),
• modular (6 weeks)
• or semicustomized fabrication (9 weeks)

is required to fulfil customer requirements.

»Because of our wide experiences in continuously innovating and improving the process of microscanner design, development and fabrication we are now able to offer customers easy configuration of individual microscanner demonstrators and quick delivery at low costs.« cheers Denis Jung, project manager of the microscanner construction set VarioS.
