Abstract

A thermally actuated micro-relay using a mercury-contact has been designed and fabricated. The mercury actuation was achieved by external nitrogen pressure and the mercury-contact was moved by actuation pressure of 110torr in the 100${\mu}m$ wide microchannel. The Injection pressure of mercury was 300torr in the 60${\mu}m$ wide microchannel of the micro relay structure.
