| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We proposed thermal actuation method of MEMS structures by local heating using a metal nano particle in order to develop a mechanical actuation well below the diffraction limit of light. Since an an-isotropic nano particle exhibits a polarization dependent light scattering characteristics, directional orientation nano particles can be arranged such that only one particular nano particle responds to one particular polarization state of the radiating light. Such arrangement can offer a polarization dependent local heating by a choice of a polarization state of the irradiation light, which can produce a selective micro structure actuation. In this study, we analyzed a scattering and heating characteristics of nano particle, and investigated a beam design of tri-axial actuation of MEMS structures.
