Vertical High-$Q$ RF-MEMS Devices for Reactive Lumped-Element Circuits
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Compact reactive lumped-element circuits fabricated using a single thick metal-layer deep X-ray lithography process are presented. Vertically oriented capacitive features are combined with inductive features in >0.25-mm-thick metal layers to realize lumped-element filter and coupler microstructures operating at up to 12 GHz. Measurements for separate thick metal reactive structures are also presented, including variable capacitors and single-turn square loop inductors. Devices feature impressive vertical structure, including a 77:1 aspect ratio, 1.3-μm-wide cantilever gap structure in 100-μm-thick photoresist. A 0.6-pF capacitor has -factors of 95 at 5.6 GHz and 214 at 3.5 GHz, and a structurally compatible 1.2-nH loop inductor has a -factor of 47 at 6.8 GHz and a self-resonant frequency of 18.8 GHz. Together, these types of devices could form the building blocks for various integrated reactive lumped-element-based circuits.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
