Abstract
In this work, we systematically investigate the nonlinear phenomenon of an electrostatic comb driven micro scanning mirror. The system governing equation is illustrated by Mathieu equation. A numerical model is built in MatLab based on the governing equation. The scanning mirror response in both time and frequency domain is simulated. Results are verified by the investigation vehicle, a fabricated MEMS scanning mirror. The experimental and simulation results have a great agreement on showing the similar parametric response and stiffness softening. Unstable region is also observed and well validated by the model.
