摘要
Currently, the technology of microelectromechanical systems is widely used in the development of high-frequency and ultrahigh-frequency devices. The most important requirements for modern and advanced devices of the ultra-high-frequency range are the reduction of weight and size characteristics, power consumption with an increase in their functionality, operating frequency and level of integration. Radio frequency microelectromechanical switches are developed using the technology of the manufacture of CMOS-integrated circuits. Integrated radio frequency control circuits require low control voltages, the high ratio of losses to the isolation in the open and closed condition, high performance and reliability. This review is devoted to the analytical approach based on the knowledge of materials, basic performance indices and mechanisms of failure, which can be used in the development of radio-frequency microelectromechanical switches.
