Abstract: Vinyl addition polymer compositions, methods for forming such compositions, methods for using such compositions to form microelectronic and optoelectronic devices are provided. The vinyl addition polymer encompassed by such compositions has a polymer backbone having two or more distinct types of repeat units derived from norbornene-type monomers independently selected from monomers of Formula I: wherein each of X, m, R1, R2, R3, and R4 is as defined herein and wherein a first type of repeat unit is derived from a glycidyl ether substituted norbornene monomer and a second type of repeat unit is derived from an aralkyl substituted norbornene monomer.

Abstract: A switch including a first and a second conductor and a transducer. The switch includes a base and an actuator coupled to the base. The actuator includes an actuating surface and a coil located thereon such that when the switch is located in a magnetic field and a sufficient current is passed through the coil, the actuator is displaced relative to the base to an actuating position wherein the actuating surface causes the first and second conductors to be electrically coupled.
