Abstract

In the last years there was an increasing interest in micromachined RF switches, mainly in the communication and space industries. This article describes a fabrication process used for the development of electrostatically actuated MEMS RF switches operating in the 2 - 40 GHz range. Results of the RF characteristic measurements of single switches are presented and possible improvements are discussed.
