An RF-MEMS Switch With Low-Actuation Voltage and High Reliability

"Both the authors and the Editor-in-Chief of Volume 15, number 6 of the IEEE/ASME JMEMS (December 2006, pp.1606-1611) of the paper numbered JMEMS 1743 have agreed that this paper, "An RF MEMS Switch with Low Actuation Voltage and High Reliability," should not have been published. The paper would have been withdrawn had this fact been discovered before the IEEE/ASME JMEMS print date for December 2006. The authors have indicated that they will work to provide a new version their paper that will be considered for publication if it is submitted in the future. For help in coming to this decision, I would like to thank those concerned individuals, including the authors, JMEMS editors, and highly respected researchers in the MEMS and microwave communities who contributed their time and consideration to help us assure the integrity of our journal."
