Definitions
Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS)- micron-scale devices linking mechanical parts to electrical components.
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)- Imaging technology which uses infrared light to image cross-sections of biological tissue with micron scale resolution.
Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD)- A process in which a controlled chemical reaction produces a thin surface film.
Photoresist- A light sensitive coating that is used to transfer the image of a mask onto the surface of a wafer, followed by a reactive ion etch (RIE).
Stiction- The surface tension of liquid on MEMS components.
Shear Mode Quartz- A piezoelectric effect in a lateral plane.

Stepping motion of the SDA:
Electrostatic load deflects the plate.
Bushing is scratched forward.
Voltage is reduced and the plate is pulled forward.
