Geometric-Stress Compensation for Reduced Temperature Dependence of a Nickel Micromechanical Resonator [1998]

The year 1998 set the stage for growth of the RF MEMS field over the next decades to come, yielding the first plenary presentation introducing this new field and producing the first publication outlining one of the major drivers for vibrating RF MEMS research: RF channel-selection and its potential to lower power consumption while raising robustness of communications. This year also marked one of the first attempts to suppress micromechanical resonator temperature dependence (via geometric stress compensation) and introduced the micromechanical mixer-filter (a.k.a. mixler) for the first time, as well as communication architectures that use it. The first “mixer first” communication front-end architecture proposal actually derived from a patent using a mixler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
