A nanoelectromechanical relay (NEM relay) is a type of relay that operates at the nanoscale and typically combines mechanical and electronic components to control the flow of electrical signals or power. NEM relays utilize the principles of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology, but on a smaller scale, often harnessing the unique properties and behavior of materials and structures at the nanoscale.
