  • Patent number: 7838950
    Abstract: The present invention is an electro mechanical component, such as a nano-electro-mechanical component, having a first, a second and a third portion arranged such that the second portion is used to functionally connect the first and the third portion. In the present invention, the second portion is a bilayer having a first and a second layer made from two dissimilar at least semiconductive materials; the two materials have different lattice constants; and the first layer harbors tensile strain close to an interface connecting the first and the second layer and harbors compressive strain at its surface; and the second layer harbors compressive strain close to the interface connecting the first and the second layer and tensile strain at the relaxed outer section.
    Type: Grant
