Abstract:
A micro-electro-mechanical device, wherein a platform is formed in a top substrate and is configured to turn through a rotation angle. The platform has a slit and faces a cavity. A plurality of integrated photodetectors is formed in a bottom substrate so as to detect the light through the slit and generate signals correlated to the light through the slit. The area of the slit varies with the rotation angle of the platform and causes diffraction, more or less marked as a function of the angle. The difference between the signals of two photodetectors arranged at different positions with respect to the slit yields the angle.

Claim (Index 20):
The method according to  claim 17 , comprising\n sending a plurality of setting light beams onto the second side of the platform, each setting light beam being sent at a different respective rotation angle of the platform; detecting, by the photodetectors, portions of the setting light beams passing through the slit; generating a plurality of sets of electrical signals by the photodetectors, each set of electrical signals being associated with a different known rotation angle of the platform and each set of electrical signals including at least three electrical setting signals generated by respective photodetectors that are aligned with each other and at different distances from the platform; calculating linearity indices as squares of amplitude differences of the electrical setting signals; and selecting a pair of photodetectors supplying maximum linearity indices as a first measure photodetector and second measurement photodetector that are used for subsequent detection of unknown rotation angles.
