Microsprings formed by deep reactive-ion etching are used for the clip micromechanism. Cantilever-shaped microelements for the TOF-SFM are handled by a manipulator, and the microgap between the microspring and opposite wall is expanded by pulling the microspring using a microneedle. Then, the microelement is inserted into the micromechanism, and is clipped by releasing the microspring. After assembly, all microelements are fixed with a conductive glue. Electrostatic actuation of the cantilevered microelement is demonstrated. This technique is advantageous in the fabrication of complex three-dimensional microstructures.本誌: 電気学会論文誌E(センサ・マイクロマシン部門誌) Vol.135 No.3 (2015) 特集:センサ・マイクロマシン英文特集号本誌掲載ページ: 98-102 p原稿種別: 論文/英語電子版へのリンク: https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/ieejsmas/135/3/135_98/_article/-char/ja/
