In one embodiment, a fluid ejector structure includes an array of fluid ejector elements; an array of fluid ejection orifices, each orifice in the array positioned adjacent to a corresponding one of the fluid ejector elements; and a three dimensional array of interconnected conductors within the orifice and ejector element arrays. In another embodiment an orifice sub-structure for a fluid ejector structure includes: a substrate; an array of orifices in the substrate arranged in rows in an x direction and in columns in a y direction; and a first thin film structure that includes first conductive elements within the orifice array extending in the x direction and in the y direction.

Fluid ejector structure

A micro-mirror device includes a substrate, at least one electrode formed on the substrate, and a reflective element spaced from the substrate and extending beyond the at least one electrode. The reflective element is adapted to move between a first position and at least one second position, and, when the reflective element is in the at least one second position, a minimum distance between the reflective element and the at least one electrode is greater than a minimum distance between the reflective element and the substrate.
