We report on the parallel manipulation and assembly of nanowires using paired virtual optical tips projected on lateral-field optoelectronic tweezers. Precise position and angular control has been demonstrated on four 80-nm-diameter silver nanowires.

Summary form only given. In this paper, we review recent demonstrations of both mechanical amplification and cooling by radiation pressure forces in micron-scale toroidal resonators and also in silicon cantilever-based resonators. These devices contain high-Q optical modes in coexistence with high-Q mechanical modes.

We present a system concept for a scanning laser radar employing a newly developed MEMS mirror array. The array solution permits large reception apertures while preserving outstanding reliability, high scanning speed, compact size and small system weight. We show first results using a single-mirror prototype.

This paper reports a design and fabrication technique of high-power handling MEMS (micro electro mechanical systems) optical scanner for laser 3D image display application. The MEMS scanner is designed to control the reflection of high-power YAG-laser beam of 5 W (0.5 mW/pulse) by the optomechanical combination of a dielectric-film coated mirror cube and an electrostatic MEMS scanner platform.

This work investigates the effect of the quantum well interface on the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum. The samples consist of an MBE (molecular beam epitaxy) grown InP/InGaAs heterostructure with two sets of a multiquantum well structure (MQW) and a single quantum well (SQW) symmetrically placed around a sacrificial layer. All are attached to a common anchor where the heterostructure is still in its pristine state; only the bottom heterostructure is present in the exposed well region next to the cantilevers. The transfer matrix method yields transition wavelengths for the SQW in the unprocessed buried case and exposed case. The electron states in the MQW structure form a mini band at the top of the quantum well and are not affected by the nature of the interface.

This paper describes large area (500 mum - 500 mum) monolithic 2-D photonic crystals (PC) for applications as high-reflectivity, broad-band mirrors in the near-IR (infra-red) spectrum. These large PC mirrors were patterned using an ASM-L i-line stepper to achieve minimum feature sizes of less than 100 nm. The reflectivity spectrum of the mirrors show that the high reflectivity (>90%) bands can be shifted in wavelength by varying the hole sizes of the photonic crystal to cover the 400 nm near-IR band from 1250 nm-1650 nm.

We are fabricating a bulk-micromachined micromirror device for laser pulse shaping applications on femtosecond time scales. An array of micromirrors is used to individually retard or diminish certain laser frequencies spanning from the UV to the near-infrared. The individual mirrors are fixed by two springs on either side and can be tilted (amplitude modulation) or moved out-of plane (phase modulation) using asymmetrical or symmetrical vertical comb drives, respectively.

A pico-projector based on scanned 3-color laser light has been developed. The scanning element is a dual-axis MEMS scanning mirror that produces WVGA display resolution. The laser light sources are red and blue laser diodes and a second harmonic green laser. Use of a MEMS and laser light sources leads to a small volume and a thickness of 7mm, enabling the use of the projector system as a component embedded into portable consumer electronics.
