Dynamic diffraction gratings can be microfabricated with precision and offer extremely sensitive displacement measurements and light intensity modulation. The effect of pure translation of the moving part of the grating on diffracted order intensities is w ...
Diffraction gratings integrated with micro-electro-mechanical-systems (MEMS) offer shot noise limited subnanometer displacement detection sensitivities but are limited in detection range for mechanical transducers. A two-wavelength readout method is develo ...

Thermo-mechanical detector arrays in the 160 x 120 array format are designed, fabricated, and tested. Detectors are composed of SiNx and TiN as absorbing layer, Al to form bimaterial legs, and integrated diffraction grating interferometer underneath each d ...
Diffraction gratings integrated with MEMS has many applications as they can offer shot noise limited sub-nm displacement detection sensitivities but are limited in range. A two-wavelength readout method is developed that maintains high sensitivity while in ...
A novel thermo-mechanical Infrared (IR) imaging array with integrated diffraction gratings for optical readout was fabricated and tested. Parylene was used as a structural material for its low thermal conductivity and high thermal expansion properties. Tes ...
