Design, Modeling, and Characterization of a Bionically Inspired Integrated Micro-Flapper for Cooling and Venting Applications

A novel, integrated micromechanical actuator based on the principle of undulatory fish locomotion and intended for efficient on-chip cooling or venting applications is conceived and designed for an aluminum nitride-based thin-film technology applying coupled piezoelectric, mechanical, and fluidic an...
