    摘要: A MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) switch actuated by electrostatic and piezoelectric forces, includes a substrate; a first contact point positioned in a predetermined first area on an upper surface of the substrate; a support layer suspended at a predetermined distance from the upper surface of the substrate; a second contact point formed on a lower surface of the support layer; a first actuator operative to move the support layer in a predetermined direction using an electrostatic force; and a second actuator operative to move the support layer in a predetermined direction using a piezoelectric force. The first actuator is used to turn on the MEMS switch. The second actuator can be used together with the first actuator to turn on the MEMS switch or can be separately used to turn off the MEMS switch. As a result, a stiction can be prevented from occurring between contact points.

    摘要: A MEMS switch includes a lower substrate having a signal line on an upper surface of the lower substrate; an upper substrate, having a cavity therein, disposed apart from the upper surface of the lower substrate by a distance, and having a membrane layer on a lower surface of the upper substrate; a bimetal layer formed in the cavity of the upper substrate on the membrane layer; a heating layer formed on a lower surface of the membrane layer; and a contact member formed on a lower surface of the heating layer. The contact member can come into contact with or separate from the signal line. A method for manufacturing the MEMS switch includes preparing the upper and lower substrates and combining them so that a surface having the signal line faces a surface having the contact member and the upper and lower substrates are disposed apart by a distance.

    摘要: An RF MEMS switch having asymmetrical spring rigidity. The RF MEMS switch has supporting members spaced apart in a certain interval on a substrate, a membrane being a motion member suspended by plural spring members extended on both sides of the membrane, and a bottom electrode being a contact surface on an upper surface of the substrate facing a bottom surface of the membrane, wherein the plural spring members placed on opposite sides of the membrane have asymmetrical rigidity, and a portion of the membrane on a side of stronger spring rigidity is first separated from the contact surface when the RF MEMS switch is turned off. The present invention has an advantage of easy separation of the switch from the contact surface, when the switch is turned off, due to the different rigidity of the springs located on the sides of the membrane.
