Abstract
A phase change material switch device is provided. The phase change material switch device includes a phase change material, a first electrode electrically coupled to the phase change material, and at least one heater thermally coupled to the phase change material. An equalization device is configured to provide an impedance coupling between the first electrode and the phase change material. The impedance coupling varies over the phase change material.
