ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to electret bistable systems comprising two fixed electrodes forming a capacitor. A sheet of electret material is inserted for creating holding forces in two rest positions of a moving element located in the capacitor gap. In accordance with the invention, the electret sheet is separated from the corresponding fixed electrode by a layer of dielectric which can be an air gap. As a variant, the charge density of the electret sheet may be concentrated in islands for reducing the holding forces.
