Abstract
A mechanical oscillator is provided for use in micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) for application in radio frequency filters and oscillators, motion and pressure sensors and other micro applications. The oscillator is of monolithic construction and has a high Q with little energy loss because of teeth attached to the oscillating member which contain energy and prevent losses.
