Abstract

The present disclosure relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to switches in a bulk substrate and methods of manufacture. The structure includes: at least one active device having a channel region of a first semiconductor material; a single air gap under the channel region of the at least one active device; and a second semiconductor material being coplanar with and laterally bounding at least one side of the single air gap, the second semiconductor material being different material than the first semiconductor material.
