Notes:
A model based on classical physics describing the nonlinear dynamics of a microscale spatial light modulator has been developed. The coupled electromechanical equations of motion have been solved for steady-state, transient, and harmonic excitation. Comparison of theoretical predictions with the results of experiment for representative devices shows good agreement for small-amplitude deflections, large-amplitude deflections, and unstable transitions.
