Patent

CA 2422384

In an electrostatically operated device manufactured by use of micromachining technology comprising: a stationary electrode substrate; a movable plate-like electrode disposed substantially in parallel with said stationary electrode substrate; and means for supporting said movable plate-like electrode to be movable toward and away from the stationary electrode substrate, a drive voltage less than the pull-in voltage is applied between the stationary electrode substrate and the movable plate-like electrode thereby to electrostatically drive the movable plate-like electrode. In addition, the electrode-to-electrode distance between the movable plate-like electrode and the stationary electrode substrate when any drive voltage is not applied is set to a value greater than three times a distance that the movable plate-like electrode moves when it is electrostatically driven by application of a drive voltage less than the pull-in voltage.
