Its application includes adaptive optics, optical fiber communication, medicine, display technologies, and wavelength-tunable devices (e.g. lasers, filters, and detectors), etc. It can also be incorporated into free-space optical communication. Free-space optical communication is a different field from optical fiber communication. It has attracted considerable attention for a variety of applications, such as wireless long-distance remote interrogation, inter-satellite communication, and communication between unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Free-space optical communication can be made less susceptible to unwanted detection than radio-frequency communication because it is possible to concentrate an optical transmission in a narrow beam aimed toward the intended recipient. Hence free-space optical transmission is an attractive option for covert communication. The optical MEMS components used for free-space optical communication can be divided into two categories: (1) Retro-reflective-type devices with modulation ability, such as corner cube retro-reflectors (CCRs); (2) Beam-steering devices, such as two-axis micromirrors. In this project, we will develop MEMS components for each category. For the first part, the goal is to obtain retro-reflective-type devices with large acceptance angles (>±45°) and low actuation voltages (<20 V). For the second part, beam-steering devices capable of achieving large optical deflection (>±10°) are targeted. Once the devices are fabricated and tested, a prototype free-space optical communication system is to be constructed. Data transfer using this MEMS-based free-space optical communication system will be demonstrated.自由空間光通訊光學微機電微機電元件無線遠距遙測查詢無人飛行載具人造衛星Free-Space Optical CommunicationOptical MEMSMicro-Electro-Mechanical SystemsWireless Long-Distance Remote InterrogationUnmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)Satellite以微機電技術建構之自由空間光通訊系統─用於無人飛行載具或人造衛星間之訊息傳輸 (第二、三年)
