Abstract
This invention mainly relates to: an electrostatic actuator,
- at least one fixed electrode (2) with respect to a substrate (4),
- at least one flexible electrode (6) arranged facing the substrate,
- at least one means forming the pivot of the flexible electrode, the said means being fixed to the flexible electrode on its face facing the fixed electrode (2) and made from a conducting material,
- at least one means of suspension (11) of the flexible electrode, holding the said flexible electrode at rest at a distance from the substrate (4). Another purpose of this invention is a method for making such an actuator.
