Abstract

A light deflector can be driven by a low voltage by reducing contact area with a plate shape member and other members. The light deflector can be driven by a low voltage by reducing a contact area with a plate shape member and other members. More particularly, a frictional force and fixing strength are reduced at a contact area with a control member deployed around a plate shape member and the plate shape member. The fixing strength is reduced at a contact area with a fulcrum member and the plate shape member. Also, the fixing strength is reduced at a contact area with a substrate (or an insulation layer on a substrate) and the plate shape member.
