Nonlinear Electrostatics (1)Gap closing actuator with a time varying voltage input. (2)Microrelays with nonlinear eletrostatics and nonlinear beam stiffness.

Transient response of a gap-closing actuator. A) shows a plot of displacement as a function of time. The voltage ramps from 5V at t=5usec to 12V at t=500usec, and then releases. As the voltage increases linearly during this time interval, the space between the gap decreases at a nonlinear rate due to electrostatic forces; likewise, the period of oscillation decreases. The amplitude of oscillations decrease exponentially due to the viscous layer of air between the device and substrate. A) B) C) Transient response of a gap-closing actuator
