While the nickel resonator <em>Q<\/em> was much lower than polysilicon counterparts and questions on aging remained, this first demonstration is a precursor to work more than a decade later to integrate high frequency metal MEMS in ruthenium for oscillator purposes. This year also brought on the first demonstration of partial gap-filling to improve capacitive-gap transducer strength, as well as the first demonstration of a micromechanical resoswitch&#8211;a device destined for use in the first all-mechanical communication receiver almost a decade later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>W.-L.
