Abstract
A microelectromechanical switch having improved isolation and insertion loss characteristics and reduced liability for stiction. The switch includes a signal line having an input port and an output port between first and second ground planes. The switch also includes a beam for controlling activation of the switch. In some embodiments, the switch further includes one or more defected ground structures formed in the first and second ground planes, and a corresponding secondary deflectable beam positioned over each defected ground structure. In some embodiments, the switch includes a metamaterial structure for generating a repulsive Casimir force.
