    摘要： A MEMS switch contains an RF electrode 102, pull-down electrodes 104 and anchor electrodes 108 located on a substrate 101. A plurality of islands 226 are provided in the pull-down electrode and electrically isolated therefrom. On top of the RF electrode is the RF contact 206 to which the MEMS-bridge 212, 214 forms an ohmic contact in the pulled-down state. The pull-down electrodes 104 are covered with a dielectric layer 202 to avoid a short-circuit between the bridge and the pull-down electrode. Contact stoppers 224 are disposed on the dielectric layer 202 at locations corresponding to the islands 226, and the resulting gap between the bridge and the dielectric layer in the pulled-down state reduces dielectric charging. In alternative embodiments, the contact stoppers are provide within the dielectric layer 202 or disposed on the islands themselves and under the dielectric layer. The switch provides good controllability of the contact resistance of MEMS switches over a wide voltage operating range.

    摘要： The present invention generally relates to a MEMS DVC utilizing one or more MIM capacitors. The MIM capacitor may be disposed between the MEMS device and the RF pad or the MIM capacitor may be integrated into the MEMS device itself. The MIM capacitor ensures that a low resistance for the MEMS DVC is achieved.

    摘要： The current disclosure shows how to make a fast switching array of mirrors for projection displays. Because the mirror does not have a via in the middle connecting to the underlying spring support, there is an improved contrast ratio that results from not having light scatter off the legs or vias like existing technologies. Because there are no supporting contacts, the mirror can be made smaller making smaller pixels that can be used to make higher density displays. In addition, because there is not restoring force from any supporting spring support, the mirror stays in place facing one or other direction due to adhesion. This means there is no need to use a voltage to hold the mirror in position. This means that less power is required to run the display.

    摘要： The present invention generally relates to methods for increasing the lifetime of MEMS devices by reducing the number of movements of a switching element in the MEMS device. Rather than returning to a ground state between cycles, the switching element can remain in the same state if both cycles necessitate the same capacitance. For example, if in both a first and second cycle, the switching element of the MEMS device is in a state of high capacitance the switching element can remain in place between the first and second cycle rather than move to the ground state. Even if the polarity of the capacitance is different in successive cycles, the switching element can remain in place and the polarity can be switched. Because the switching element remains in place between cycles, the switching element, while having the same finite number of movements, should have a longer lifetime.
