Abstract
An apparatus, system, and method for micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) micromirror including a plurality of stiffening structures is described. The MEMS micromirror includes a mirror surface to reflect light, a support platform coupled along a mirror surface, and a plurality of stiffening structures formed from or coupled to the support platform. In some examples, a dimensionality or density of the stiffening structures scale across an area of the support platform in a manner to assist in keeping the mirror surface flat under torsional force.
