A bi-stable vertical magnetic actuator with non-contact latching based on magnetic microlamination technology

Abstract: We present the design, fabrication and testing of a bi-stable vertical magnetic actuator which exhibits non-contact latching behavior that is enabled by magnetic microlamination technology. The lamination technology translates the structural periodicity (i.e. the multilayers of alternating magnetic and nonmagnetic materials) into magnetic-field-pattern periodicity, which in turn results in multi-stable energy states of the microsystem and leads to the defined latching behavior. A single-mask process is utilize… Show more

“…Therefore, the whole fabrication process needed multiple steps and was complicated. In 2018, Li et al [25] designed a permalloy (Ni 80 Fe 20 ) spring which acted both as FM and coil. The permalloy was movable and had a tendency to latch in alignment with a pair of fixed pre-magnetized FM to realize bi-stable states.…”
