ABSTRACT:
A microelectromechanical device having a reset electrode for use in various devices including display devices such as those employing spatial light modulators. The device includes an optically transmissive substrate, a semiconductor substrate, and a member deflectable between a rest position and an operative position supported by one of the substrates. The deflectable member returns to an undeflected position by operation of the reset electrode.
