Abstract
In a two-dimensional optical deflector including: a mirror; two first torsion bars coupled to the mirror along a first axis; an inner frame surrounding the mirror; two piezoelectric actuators each coupled between the first torsion bars and supported by the inner frame; an outer frame surrounding the inner frame; and two second torsion bars coupled between the inner frame and the outer frame along a second axis; a first permanent magnet layer formed on at least a part of a rear-side surface of the inner frame. A base supports the outer frame. A coil is formed at the base. A magnetic flux generated from the coil interacts with a magnetic flux of the first permanent magnetic layer.
