Multilayered microstructures with shape memory effects for vertical deployment

Zhongjing Ren et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the vertical deployment of microstructures through thermal mismatch, and investigates the equiatomic NiTi layers in multilayered microstructures. The fabrication process involves sputtering NiTi layers and lift-off using negative photoresist ma-N1420. XRD and AFM are utilized to analyze the crystal structures and surface topography of the NiTi layers, showing the presence of austenite and martensitic phases at room temperature. Experimental verification of vertical deployment is performed, with a 3D displacement of 10 μm achieved by introducing shape memory effects.
