Fast electrothermally activated micro-positioner using a high-aspect-ratio micro-machined polymeric composite
Recently, silicon electrothermal micro-actuators have been developed for dual-stage micropositioning in hard disk drive. But, silicon with a low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) has a shortcoming of requiring a large temperature change (>300 °C) to expand adequately. This letter presented a...
