Spatial optical modulator with passivation layer

摘要

Disclosed is an optical modulator including: a substrate; an insulation layer disposed on the substrate; a ribbon layer, a center portion of which is spaced apart from the insulation layer by a predetermined gap; a piezoelectric element that is disposed on the ribbon layer and allows the center portion of the ribbon layer to bend vertically; and a passivation layer that is disposed on the piezoelectric element and comprises a main passivation film.
