Imaging with two-axis micromirrors
We demonstrate a means of creating a digital image by using a two axis tilt
micromirror to scan a scene. For each different orientation we extract a single
grayscale value from the mirror and combine them to form a single composite
image. This allows one to choose the distribution of the samples, and so in
principle a variable resolution image could be created. We demonstrate this
ability to control resolution by constructing a voltage table that compensates
for the non-linear response of the mirrors to the applied voltage.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures, preprin

Computer-aided design of free-space optoelectronic interconnection �FSOI� systems
This paper presents a system capable of static and dynamic simulations of heterogeneous opto-electronic systems. It is capable of modeling Gaussian optical signal propagation with mechanical tolerancing at the system level. We present results which demonstrate the system’s ability to predict the effects of various component parameters, such as detector geometry, and system level parameters, such as alignment tolerances, on system performance. 1
