Method of manufacturing switchable filters |
摘要 |
Switchable and/or tunable filters and methods of manufacture. The method of forming the filters includes forming at least one piezoelectric filter structure comprising a plurality of electrodes formed on a piezoelectric substrate. The method further includes forming a micro-electro-mechanical structure (MEMS) comprising a MEMS beam formed above the piezoelectric substrate and at a location in which, upon actuation, the MEMS beam shorts the piezoelectric filter structure by contacting at least one of the plurality of electrodes. |

1. A method comprising:
forming at least one piezoelectric filter structure comprising a plurality of electrodes formed on a piezoelectric substrate; forming a micro-electro-mechanical structure (MEMS) comprising a MEMS beam formed above the piezoelectric substrate and at a location in which, upon actuation, the MEMS beam shorts the piezoelectric filter structure by contacting at least one of the plurality of electrodes; forming a bottom actuator on the piezoelectric substrate, below the MEMS beam; and forming a top actuator on an insulator layer, above the MEMS beam. |
