Interferometric modulators having a separable modulator architecture are
disclosed having a reflective layer suspended from a flexible layer over
a cavity. The interferometric modulators have one or more anti-tilt
members that inhibit undesirable movement of the reflective layer, such
as curling and/or tilting. The stabilization of the reflective layer by
the anti-tilt members can improve the quality of the optical output of
the interferometric modulators, as well as displays comprising such
interferometric modulators.
