    Abstract: The present subject matter relates to devices, systems, and methods for isolation of electrostatic actuators in MEMS devices to reduce or minimize dielectric charging. A tunable component can include a fixed actuator electrode positioned on a substrate, a movable actuator electrode carried on a movable component that is suspended over the substrate, one or more isolation bumps positioned between the fixed actuator electrode and the movable actuator electrode, and a fixed isolation landing that is isolated within a portion of the fixed actuator electrode that is at, near, and/or substantially aligned with each of the one or more isolation bumps. In this arrangement, the movable actuator electrode can be selectively movable toward the fixed actuator electrode, but the one or more isolation bumps can prevent contact between the fixed and movable actuator electrodes, and the fixed isolation landing can inhibit the development of an electric field in the isolation bump.

The MEMS device also includes a underlying substrate, the free layer movably positioned relative to the underlying substrate. The first portion and second portion of the free layer are coupled through at least one stem. A sense material is disposed over portions of the second portion of the free layer. Stress in the sense material and second portion of the free layer does not cause substantial deflection of the first portion.
