Abstract
A microelectromechanical system switch includes a signal input line, a signal output line, a deformable conducting membrane electrically connected to the signal output line and including a contact dimple facing the signal input line, and an actuation electrode. The membrane has a planar round shape, with a radial opening in the direction of the signal input line, narrowing from the periphery towards the center of the membrane, the contact dimple being formed in the central region of the membrane, the actuation electrode has the same shape as the membrane, and the gap between the membrane, facing the actuation electrode, and the actuation electrode is an airgap only.
