1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The MEMS scanning micromirror requires angle sensors to provide real-time angle feedback during operation, ensuring a stable and accurate deflection of the micromirror. This paper proposes a method for integrating piezoresistive sensors on the torsion axis of electrostatic MEMS micromirrors to detect the deflection angle. The design uses a multi-layer bonding process to realize a vertical comb-driven structure. The device structure is designed as a double-layer structure, in which the top layer is the ground layer and integrates with piezoresistive sensor. This approach avoids crosstalk between the applied drive voltage and the piezoresistive sensor. This design also optimizes the sensor's size, improving sensitivity. A MEMS two-dimensional (2D) scanning micromirror with a 1 mm mirror diameter was designed and fabricated. The test results indicated that, in a vacuum environment, the torsional resonance frequencies of the micromirror's fast axis and slow axis were 17.68 kHz and 2.225 kHz, respectively. When driving voltages of 33 V and 40 V were applied to the fast axis and slow axis of the micromirror, the corresponding optical scanning angles were 55° and 45°, respectively. The piezoresistive sensor effectively detects the micromirror's deflection state, and optimizing the sensor's size achieved a sensitivity of 13.87 mV/V/°. The output voltage of the piezoresistive sensor shows a good linear relationship with the micromirror's deflection angle, enabling closed-loop feedback control of the electrostatic MEMS micromirror.
