A Novel Bi-Stable MEMS Membrane Concept Based on a Piezoelectric Thin Film Actuator for Integrated Switching
This study reports on a novel bi-stable actuator with an integrated aluminum nitride (AlN) piezoelectric layer sandwiched between two electrodes. To achieve bistability, the membranes must exceed a characteristic compressive stress value, also called the critical stress. For this purpose, we used hi...
