Abstract

An optical switching device includes a mirror (90), a first and a second actuator (60, 61) for adjusting a tilt angle of the mirror (90) on the x-axis, a third and a fourth actuators (260, 261) for adjusting tilt angles of the first and the second actuators (60, 61) on the y-axis, gimbals (160) for supporting the first and the second actuators (60, 61) and a driving substrate for applying a driving signal to the actuators. Each of the actuators has membranes (60a, 60b, 260a, 260b), a piezoelectric layer (65) formed on each of the membranes (60a, 60b, 260a, 260b) and a connecting part (22, 42) having two elastic bodies (22b, 42b) coupled to the membranes (60a, 60b, 260a, 260b) and a connecting member (22a, 42a) coupled between the two elastic bodies (22b, 42b). The gimbals (160) include a groove (75) thereon in a lateral direction to prevent the gimbals (160) from being bent when the piezoelectric layers (65) are constricted or expanded. The optical switching device controls the tilting of the mirror (90) on the x-axis independently of the tilting thereof on the y-axis.
