    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus for electromechanical systems devices with improved electrical properties and device life span. In one aspect, a conformal antistiction layer is formed within a cavity of an electromechanical systems apparatus over a roughened surface. The conformal antistiction layer can include a dielectric layer. The conformal antistiction layer can include a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) formed over the dielectric layer. The conformal antistiction layer can replicate the roughness of the surface that it is deposited on.

    Abstract: A MEMS structure and methods of manufacture. The method includes forming a sacrificial metal layer at a same level as a wiring layer, in a first dielectric material. The method further includes forming a metal switch at a same level as another wiring layer, in a second dielectric material. The method further includes providing at least one vent to expose the sacrificial metal layer. The method further includes removing the sacrificial metal layer to form a planar cavity, suspending the metal switch. The method further includes capping the at least one vent to hermetically seal the planar cavity.

    Abstract: An exemplary method for forming gaps in a micromechanical device includes providing a substrate. A first material layer is deposited over the substrate. A sacrificial layer is deposited over the first material layer. A second material layer is deposited over the sacrificial layer such that at least a portion of the sacrificial layer is exposed. The exposed portion of the sacrificial layer is etched by dry etching. The remaining portion of the sacrificial layer is etched by wet etching to form gaps between the first material layer and the second material layer. One or more bulges are formed at one side of the second material layer facing the first material layer, and are a portion of the sacrificial layer remaining after the wet etching.

    Abstract: A method of fabricating a MEMS device includes conditioning of an insulating layer by applying a voltage across the insulating layer via a conductive sacrificial layer for a period of time, prior to removal of the conductive sacrificial layer. This conditioning process may be used to saturate or stabilize charge accumulated within the insulating layer. The resistance across the insulating layer may also be measured to detect possible defects in the insulating layer.
