    Abstract: Un microsystème électromécanique comprend une poutre (1) et une électrode (10) couplée par une interaction électrostatique avec la poutre. La poutre est adaptée pour subir des déformations élastiques par flexion et possède un motif de section sensiblement constant. La poutre (1) est constituée de plusieurs pans (P1-P4) s'étendant sur la longueur de la poutre (L), et ayant chacun une épaisseur inférieure à une dimension extérieure du motif de section (w, t). Une fréquence de vibration par flexion de la poutre est alors accrue par rapport à une poutre pleine de mêmes dimensions extérieures. Un tel microsystème est adapté pour des applications à durées de transition très courtes, ou pour réaliser des oscillateurs et des résonateurs à haute fréquence.

    Abstract: Electrostatically actuatable MEMS device comprising: a substrate (103) of which at least a top layer (106) comprises a dielectric material; a first conductor (102) fixed to the top layer of the substrate, forming a fixed electrode of the device; and a second conductor (100) fixed to the top layer of the substrate, the second conductor being electrically isolated from the first conductor and comprising a movable portion (100') which is suspended at a predetermined first distance (D1) above the first conductor. The movable portion forms a movable electrode of the device which approaches the fixed electrode upon applying an appropriate voltage difference between the first and second conductors. A substrate surface area (105) is defined as the orthogonal projection of the movable portion on the substrate between the first and second conductors. In the substrate surface area at least one recess (107) is provided in at least the top layer of the substrate.

    Abstract: Electro-mechanical switches and memory cells using vertically-disposed nanofabric articles and methods of making the same are described. An electro-mechanical device, includes a structure having a major horizontal surface and a channel formed therein. A conductive trace is in the channel; and a nanotube article vertically suspended in the channel, in spaced relation to a vertical wall of the channel. The article is electro-mechanically deflectable in a horizontal direction toward the conductive trace. Under certain embodiments, the vertically suspended extent of the nanotube article is defined by a thin film process. Under certain embodiments, the vertically suspended extent of the nanotube article is about 50 nanometers or less. Under certain embodiments, the nanotube article is clamped with a conducting material disposed in porous spaces between some nanotubes of the nanotube article. Under certain embodiments, the nanotube article is formed from a porous nanofabric. Under certain embodiments, the nanotube article is electromechanically deflectable into contact with the conductive trace and the contact is either a volatile state or non-volatile state depending on the device construction. Under certain embodiments, the vertically oriented device is arranged into various forms of three-trace devices. Under certain embodiments, the channel may be used for multiple independent devices, or for devices that share a common electrode.
