Design of compact, high capacitance ratio MEMS switch for X - Band applications using high-k dielectric materials
The paper discusses the design aspects of capacitive RF MEMS Symmetric Toggle Switch (STS) with particular emphasis on device compactness, reliability, and improvement in isolation & insertion loss by incorporating hafnium dioxide (HfO2) as a dielectric material. The major impact of the change from SiO2 to HfO2 having dielectric constant of 20, is the reduction in overall dimensions of the swit...
متن کاملDesign and Simulation of Compact, High Capacitance Ratio RF MEMS Switches using High-K Dielectric Material
In this paper, RF MEMS Capacitive Switches for two different dielectrics hafnium oxide (HfO2) and silicon nitride (Si3N4) are presented. The switches have been characterized and compared in terms of RF performance. The major impact of the change from Si3N4 to HfO2 having dielectric constant 20 is the reduction in overall dimension of the switch; capacitive area is reduced by 66% leading to over...
متن کاملDesign of Novel High Sensitive MEMS Capacitive Fingerprint Sensor
In this paper a new design of MEMS capacitive fingerprint sensors is presented. The capacitive sensor is made of two parallel plates with air gap. In these sensors, the capacitance changes is very important factor. It is caused by deformation of the upper electrode of sensor. In this study with making slots in upper electrode, using T-shaped protrusion on diaphragm in order to concentrate the f...
متن کاملDesign and simulation of a RF MEMS shunt capacitive switch with low actuation voltage, low loss and high isolation
According to contact type, RF MEMS switches are generally classified into two categories: Capacitive switches and Metal-to-Metal ones. The capacitive switches are capable to tolerate a higher frequency range and more power than M-to-M switches. This paper presents a cantilever shunt capacitive RF MEMS switch with characteristics such as low trigger voltage, high capacitive ratio, short switchin...
متن کاملMEMS Design And Verification
The long term impact of MEMS technology will be in its ability to integrate novel sensing and actuation functionality on traditional computing and communication devices enabling the ubiquitous digital computer to interact with the world around it. The design and verification of such integrated systems will occur at the system level, driven primarily by the application. Application-driven system...
