ABSTRACT:
A substrate, a method for producing a substrate, and a switch incorporating a substrate are disclosed. In one embodiment, the substrate has a first layer, a first electrode deposited on the first layer, and a second layer mated to the first layer. The second layer defines a duct leading from the first electrode to a surface of the second layer opposite the first electrode. A liquid electrode fills at least a portion of the duct.
