Abstract:
The present disclosure provides in one embodiment, a semiconductor device that includes a MEMS switch having a substrate, a first dielectric layer disposed above the substrate, and a bottom signal electrode, a bump, and a bottom actuation electrode disposed above the first dielectric layer. The MEMS switch further includes a second dielectric layer enclosing the bottom signal electrode, and a movable member including a top signal electrode disposed above the bottom signal electrode and a top actuation electrode disposed above the bottom actuation electrode and the bump, wherein the top actuation electrode is electrically coupled to the bump. A method of fabricating a MEMS switch is also disclosed.
