Figure 4
Operation of the shutter, showing the trigger signal (blue), the generated drive signal (orange) and the measured light intensity corresponding to the shutter opening and closing (green). The data reflect a fully assembled device with two opposing blades. The time for a full transition of the shutter is 2 ms. In the example shown, the shutter operates continuously at 100 Hz, but it can also be triggered asynchronously, i.e. opened and closed on demand.
