Problems solved by technology

[0005] 1) The stress of the silicon nitride film will warp and deform the switch structure, and even cause the switch to fail;
[0006] 2) The adhesion between the silicon nitride film and the structural material polysilicon is poor, it is easy to fall off, and cannot withstand high mechanical force; thus affecting the stability of the switch contact and reducing the reliability of the switch
[0007] The difficulty in the design of the interconnection structure complicates the switch processing technology and increases the cost. At the same time, it reduces the working performance and reliability of the switch, which seriously affects the application prospect and market competitiveness of the switch.

Abstract

This invention provides a realizing method for interlinking structure of RF MEMS switch, which utilizes generation of primary polysilicon to prepare a drive, interlinking structure and a contact part of the RF MEMS switch, in which, the drive and contact parts are doped polysilicon and the interlinking structure between them is non-doped. The invention takes non-doped polysilicon as the interlinking structure between the drive structure and the contact part of the RF MEMS switch to get the result of electric insulation effectively at the time realizing mechanical interlinking.
