Why Comb Drive Micro Actuator? Why Comb Drive Micro Actuator?

Force doesn’t drops rapidly when increasing gapForce doesn’t drops rapidly when increasing gap

Fringing CurvesFringing Curves

Electrostic Micro-actuator consists of many fingers that are actuated by applying a voltage.

The thickness of the fingers is small in comparison to their lengths and widths.

The attractive forces are mainly due to the fringing fields rather than the parallel plate fields.
