Science

Which outcome occurs when piezoelectric actuators drive a MEMS capacitor beyond its designed frequency threshold?

A)Increased dielectric breakdown probability
B)Enhanced capacitive energy storage
C)Improved frequency response linearity
D)Reduced actuator hysteresis effects

💡 Explanation

Increased dielectric breakdown occurs because the piezoelectric actuators induce excessive mechanical stress influencing the dielectric material’s stability via the piezoelectric effect; therefore, breakdown dominates, rather than enhanced storage achieved under controlled lower frequencies.
