Quasi-Static Pull-in: an Instability in Electrostatic Actuators

We identify a new instability in electrostatic actuators dubbed quasi-static pull-in. We report experimental evidence of the instability and study its characteristics in two types of micro actuators operating in ambient air. We found that the underlying mechanism is a fast-slow dynamic interaction b...
