Air-suspension of transmission-line structures using microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology provides the effective means to suppress substrate losses for radio-frequency (RF) signals. However, heating of these lines augmented by skin effect

We propose an extended finite element-boundary integral method (EFE-BI) to model the electromagnetic (EM) behavior of RF-MEMS switches over a wide frequency range from UHF to terahertz. Our new method integrates EM with finite element heat transfer a

This paper explores contact heating in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) switches with contact spot sizes less than 100 nm in diameter. Experiments are conducted to demonstrate that contact heating causes a drop in contact resistance. However, ex

Direct contact RF microelectromechanical systems switches have demonstrated excellent ultrawideband performance from dc to 100 GHz. However, they are prone to failures due to contact adhesion and arcing, particularly for pure-gold/pure-gold contacts.

The implementation of direct contact RF MEMS switches is challenging owing to their unstable contact resistance and low power handling/delivery. This paper carefully studies RF MEMS switch contact behavior and proposes a new method to suppress its in

RF MEMS direct-contact switches exhibit many advantages over the conventional semiconductor switches; however, existing drawbacks such as low power handling, high pull-in voltage and long switch opening time are most critical. This paper presents an

We have experimentally observed the failure of metal contact RF MEMS switches due to a rapid rise in contact resistance during switching. We were able to repair the failed switches through heating the contact asperities by applying sufficient contact
