Nanocomposite Contact Material for MEMS Switches

Ding C., MacDonald N.C., university of california, santa barbara, US

This work reports the development of a nanostructured composite contact material for improving the contact reliability of MEMS switches. The nanocomposite material was integrated into a bulk titanium MEMS (BT-MEMS) switch which was fabricated using [...]

High-fidelity MEMS Switch Model

Park K.C., Park Y.H., Miyazaki Y., Park K.C., Park Y.H., University of Colorado at Boulder, US

MEMS switches have used in a wide variety of microwave applications because of low loss and small measurable signal distortion since the switching action is accomplished by mechanical contact. While various microswitches are currently being [...]
