Vertical Resonant Comb Actuators for Fourier Transform Spectroscopy

A Fourier transform spectrometer is implemented with resonant mode out-of-plane comb actuators which are used as movable diffraction gratings. 106 mum deflection is obtained at 28 V in ambient pressure at 1.2 KHz for a 3 mm clear aperture device
