Keywords: electrostatic actuation, instability, pull-in, semilinear elliptic problem
The pull-in voltage instability is the principle phenomena limiting the design of nearly every electrostatically actuated MEMS device. In this instability, when applied voltages are increased beyond a certain critical voltage there is no longer a steady s
