Stability, Nonlinearity and Reliability of Electrostatically Actuated MEMS Devices
Electrostatic micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) is a special branch with a wide range of applications in sensing and actuating devices in MEMS. This paper provides a survey and analysis of the electrostatic force of importance in MEMS, its physical model, scaling effect, stability, nonlinearity and reliability in detail. It is necessary to understand the effects of electrostatic forces in ...
متن کاملA Flexible Fabrication Process for RF MEMS Devices
RF MEMS are assuming a great importance in the fast evolving telecommunication market and space applications. In the last years a flexible technology platform has been developed and continuously optimized at FBK (Italy) for the fabrication of RF MEMS basic components as well as complex RF circuits working in the frequency range from sub-GHz up to more than 100 GHz. The paper reports about the f...

متن کاملMEMS and BST Technologies for Microwave Applications
2002 v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS For the past four years I owe a lot to my advisory committee, my friends, my family, and many other people who always supported me, without whom it is almost impossible for me to get this work done. Care and support from all these people gave me the confidence, their encouragement means so much to me throughout those countless hard-working days and nights. I am deeply gr...
متن کاملNumerical Analysis of Dynamic Effects of a Nonlinear Vibro-Impact Process for Enhancing the Reliability of Contact-Type MEMS Devices
This paper reports on numerical modeling and simulation of a generalized contact-type MEMS device having large potential in various micro-sensor/actuator applications, which are currently limited because of detrimental effects of the contact bounce phenomenon that is still not fully explained and requires comprehensive treatment. The proposed 2-D finite element model encompasses cantilever micr...
