  • Abstract
    The metal-polysilicon-silicon (MPSS) switch, with which the polysilicon provides a semi-insulating layer, is evaluated. Fabrication details and measurements results are presented. The effects of the temperature on the main parameters are examined and correlated with a theoretical model which can be used to optimize the device for particular switching characteristics
