This work shows experimental results of capacitive and ohmic RF-MEMS switches with low actuation voltage. The isolation of capacitive switches is better than 20 dB from 15 GHz and up to 80 GHz according to simulations. The ohmic-contact switch can be used in coplanar waveguide (CPW) reconfigurable multimodal circuits, for a selective use of the CPW odd-mode. The CPW odd-mode isolation in the down state is better than 20 dB up to 8 GHz and better than 10 dB up to 30 GHz.

Abstract

This work shows experimental results of capacitive and ohmic RF-MEMS switches with low actuation voltage. The isolation of capacitive switches is better than 20 dB from 15 GHz and up to 80 GHz according to simulations. The ohmic-contact switch can be used in coplanar waveguide (CPW) reconfigurable multimodal circuits, for a selective use of the CPW odd-mode. The CPW odd-mode isolation in the down state is better than 20 dB up to 8 GHz and better than 10 dB up to 30 GHz.
