摘要：
We demonstrate here an optical link for free-space retrocommunication based on an optical microelectromechanical system array with a structure of mechanically active antireflection switch using a thin Si3N4 membrane. The array consists of 215 identical single devices with a total active area of 36 mm(2) and was fabricated with the normal surface sacrificial micromachining. An overfilled reflectance contrast of 3 dB was observed at 6328 Angstrom and a data rate of 100 kb/s shown in 50 mtorr vacuum. A design tradeoff between the high optical filling factor and the high working frequency is discussed.
