a filter that eliminates a specified narrow bandwidth frequency from a signal consisting of frequencies of a given bandwidth) in the MEMS mirror serves to suppress the mechanical resonance (a phenomenon whereby the input of an external signal at a certain frequency induces strong vibrations) that normally occurs when switching the optical signal.
The PARC-based design uses MEMs-type mirrors that can be tilted to higher angles than traditional MEMs mirrors, allowing the incoming and outgoing optical fiber bundles to be spaced more closely.
TeraOp develops components based on fast, accurate MEMS mirrors and membranes for applications such as innovative VOAs, optical crossbars, very high frequency RF switches, and extremely linear scanning mirrors for quality mobile displays and scanners.
