Shaped Mems Contact

View page
US Patent:
7601554, Oct 13, 2009
Filed:
Jan 31, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/047345
Inventors:
Paul E. Kladitis - New Carlisle OH, US
Robert L. Crane - Kettering OH, US
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air Force - Washington DC
International Classification:
H01L 21/00
US Classification:
438 48, 200181, 257E21001
Abstract:
A MEMS switch fabrication process and apparatus inclusive of a bulbous rounded surface movable contact assembly that is integral with the switch movable element and achieving of long contact wear life with low contact electrical resistance. The disclosed process is compatible with semiconductor integrated circuit fabrication materials and procedures and includes an unusual photoresist reflow step in which the bulbous contact shape is quickly defined in three dimensions from more easily achieved integrated circuit mask and etching-defined precursor shapes. A plurality of differing photoresist materials are used in the process. A large part of the contact and contact spring formation used in the invention is accomplished with low temperature processing including electroplating. Alternate processing steps achieving an alloy metal contact structure are included. Use of a subroutine of processing steps to achieve differing but related portions of the electrical contact structure is also included.

Digital Delay Device

View page
US Patent:
7676153, Mar 9, 2010
Filed:
Oct 17, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/251192
Inventors:
Guna Seetharaman - Dayton OH, US
Paul E. Kladitis - Edwards CA, US
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air Force - Washington DC
International Classification:
H04J 14/00
US Classification:
398 45, 398 53, 385 18
Abstract:
A digitally controlled optical delay apparatus providing optical signal delays electrically selectable in the picosecond to nanosecond range by way of selectable signal path lengths. Path lengths are incremented in physical length and path delay time according to digital ratios. The delay element includes micro-miniature path changing mirrors controlled in path length selecting positioning by input signals of logic level magnitude. Fiber optic coupling of signals to and from the delay element and a combination of fixed position and movable mirror included optical signal path lengths are included.

US Patent:
7906738, Mar 15, 2011
Filed:
Oct 13, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/578034
Inventors:
Paul E. Kladitis - New Carlisle OH, US
Robert L. Crane - Kettering OH, US
Assignee:

Radio Frequency Mems Switch Contact Metal Selection

US Patent:
7235750, Jun 26, 2007
Filed:
Jan 31, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/047344
Inventors:
Paul E. Kladitis - New Carlisle OH, US
Robert L. Crane - Kettering OH, US
Kevin D. Leedy - Centerville OH, US
Assignee:
United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air Force - Washington DC
International Classification:
H01H 57/00
US Classification:
200181, 335 78, 257414, 257411, 438107, 438109
Abstract:
A method for selecting metal alloys as the electric contact materials for microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) metal contact switches. This method includes a review of alloy experience, consideration of equilibrium binary alloy phase diagrams, obtaining thin film material properties and, based on a suitable model, predicting contact electrical resistance performance. After determination of a candidate alloy material, MEMS switches are conceptualized, fabricated and tested to validate the alloy selection methodology. Minimum average contact resistance values of 1. 17 and 1. 87 ohms are achieved for micro-switches with gold (Au) and gold-platinum (Au-(6. 3 at %)Pt) alloy contacts. In addition, ‘hot-switched’ life cycle test results of 1. 02×10and 2. 70×10cycles may be realized for micro-switches with Au and Au-(6.
