Mikromechanischer Schalter

The invention relates to a micromechanical switch (1) having a substrate (100) on which at least one first contact element (101) and at least one second contact (102) are arranged, wherein at least one of the contact elements (101, 102) can be moved, with the result that the contact elements (101, 102) can be moved from a contact position to a disconnected position, wherein the contact elements (101, 102) are at a first distance (g) from one another in the contact position and are at a second distance (G) from one another in the disconnected position, wherein the second distance (G) is greater than the first distance (g) and the first distance (g) is approximately 10 nm to approximately 200 nm
