Abstract
A plurality of ribbon suspenders affix a device to a support structure. Each ribbon suspender is defined by a thickness and a width that is greater than the thickness, and has a first connection portion affixed to the support structure, a second connection portion affixed to the device, and a support portion between the first and second connection portions. The support portion is elastic and flexes to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction of the support structure. A first bond affixes the first connection portion to the support structure and a second bond affixes the second connection portion to the device.
