    摘要: A bistable MEMS switch for use in selectively opening or closing electrical circuits included in an implantable medical device system is provided. The switch includes a central movable beam having a movable contact; a suspension system for supporting the movable beam and generating a contact force; an actuator for displacing the beam upon application of an activation signal, and a fixed contact for interfacing the movable contact when the switch is in a closed state. The switch is fabricated from a Si/SiO2/Si wafer using photolithography, DRIE and sacrificial oxide etching followed by metalization of electrical contact points with a wear-resistant metal or alloy. An actuation layer may be fabricated from the silicon substrate layer of the wafer and the signal layer may be fabricated from the top silicon layer. The actuation layer and signal layer are thereby electrically decoupled and mechanically coupled by the intervening SiO2 layer.
