Abstract:This paper presents for the first time a novel MEMSreconfigurable inductive iris based on a 30-µm thick reconfigurable transmissive surface and reports on its application to create a switchable cavity resonator in a WR-12 rectangular waveguide (60-90 GHz). The reconfigurable surface incorporates 252 simultaneously switched contact points for activating (ON state) and deactivating (OFF state) the inductive iris by a 24 µm lateral displacement of two sets of distributed vertical cantilevers. In the ON state, the… Show more
