<p>Methods and apparatus for use with a micromirror element (200) utilize a micromirror having a substantially flat outer surface (280) disposed outwardly from a support structure (275) that is operable to at least partially support the micromirror. The support structure includes at least one layer overlying at least two discrete planes (270, 235) that are both parallel to the outer surface of the micromirror. In one particular embodiment, the support structure includes annular- shaped sidewalls (250, 255) that encapsulate a photoresist plug (225).</p> |
