circular and elliptical micro-torsion mirrors. To derive the expressions of squeeze-film air-
damping torque, the nonlinear Reynolds equation, which governs the air behavior of torsion
mirror, is solved by the method of eigenfunction expansions in polar coordinate and elliptical
coordinate, respectively. The series solutions are integrated and summed up to deduce the
damping torque of circular and elliptical torsion mirrors. The formulas of circular mirror and …
