본 논문에서는 10 Gbps급 데이터 전송을 위한 CPW(coplanar waveguide) 피드라인(feed-line)을 이용한 세라믹 스템(stem) 기반의 TO 패키지를 제안하였다. 기존의 금속 기반 TO 패키지에서 사용되는 실린더형 피드라인의 주파수 특성과 세라믹 패키지에서 사용되는 CPW 피드라인의 주파수 특성의 차이를 이론적으로 분석 비교하였다. 그리고 이들 패키지에 DFB 레이저다이오드(laser diode: LD)를 실장하여 측정된 3 dB 주파수 대역폭은 각각 3.5 GHz와 7.8 GHz로 사용된 패키지에 따라 큰 차이를 갖는 것을 밝혔다. 이러한 측정결과는 등가회로를 이용한 이론적인 계산결과와 잘 일치함도 확인하였다. 이상의 결과를 바탕으로 LD 광모듈의 주파수 특성을 개선하기 위한 방안으로 세라믹 재질의 비전도성 유전체를 스템으로 이용한 세라믹 스템 기반의 CPW 피드라인을 장착한 새로운 TO 패키지를 제안하였다. 제안된 패키지는 HFSS(high frequency structure simulator)를 이용하여 추출된 S 파라미터 값으로부터 기존의 금속 기반의 TO 패키지보다 월등히 넓은 주파수 특성을 얻을 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

A thin-film transmission line (TFTL) employing a microstrip line/coplanar waveguide (ML/CPW) was fabricated on a silicon substrate for application to a miniaturized on-chip RF component, and the RF characteristics of the device with the proposed structure were investigated. The TFTL employing a ML/CPW composite structure exhibited a shorter wavelength than that of a conventional coplanar waveguide and that of a thin-film microstrip line. When the TFTL with the proposed structure was fabricated to have a length of ${\lambda}/8$, it showed a loss of less than 1.12 dB at up to 30 GHz. The improvement in the periodic capacitance of the TFTL caused for the propagation constant, ${\beta}$, and the effective permittivity, ${\varepsilon}_{eff}$, to have values higher than those of a device with only a conventional coplanar waveguide and a thin film microstrip line. The TFTL with the proposed structure showed a ${\beta}$ of 0.53~2.96 rad/mm and an ${\varepsilon}_{eff}$ of 22.3~25.3 when operating from 5 to 30 GHz. A highly miniaturized impedance transformer was fabricated on a silicon substrate using the proposed TFTL for application to a low-impedance transformation for broadband. The size of the impedance transformer was 0.01 mm2, which is only 1.04% of the size of a transformer fabricated using a conventional coplanar waveguide on a silicon substrate. The impedance transformer showed excellent RF performance for broadband.

본 논문에서는 접힌 스텝 임피던스 공진기(SIR)를 사용한 CPW 대역통과 여파기를 제안하였다. 한쪽 끝이 접지된 접힌 스텝 임피던스 공진기의 길이는 coplanar waveguide의 동일 평면상 접지면을 이용하면 λ/8까지 줄일 수 있다. 이것은 일반적인 λ/4 스텝 임피던스 공진기를 사용한 대역 통과 여파기와 비교하여 크기를 거의 반으로 줄일 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 여파기의 등가회로를 유도하고 이를 이용하여 중심주파수 f$_{0}$=5GHz이고 대역폭이 3%인 대역통과 여파기를 설계 및 제작하였다. 제작된 4 폴 대역통과 여파기에 대한 측정치가 IE3D의 시뮬레이션 결과 및 등가회로로 계산된 결과와 잘 일치하였다. 제작된 대역통과 여파기는 하모닉 주파수가 2.5f$_{0}$에서 발생하는 좋은 스퓨리어스 특성을 가진다. 제안된 접힌 스텝 임피던스 공진기를 이용한 대역 통과 여파기는 MMIC 및 고온 초전도체 여파기 등에 응용될 수 있다.다.

Ti:LiNbO$_3$ 광 도파로를 이용한 광 변조기의 마이크로파 손실을 감소시키고 RF와 광파의 속도정합의 조건하에서 초고속 광변조의 제작을 위해서는 두꺼운 TW(travelling wave) 전극이 필수적이다 또한, 두꺼운 Au 전극이 우수한 RF 특성을 갖기 위해서는 도금된 Au 전극이 고순도의 작은 grain size를 갖는 도금 층을 제조하여야 하며, 도금 후 Au 층의 뒤틀림 현상이 작아야 한다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 LiNbO$_3$ 기판 위에 30nm Ni-Cr과 50nm의 Au의 기저 막을 올렸으며 감광제를 이용한 photo-lithography 공정으로 CPW(coplanar waveguide) 구조의 패턴을 약 13$\mu\textrm{m}$의 두께로 형성 한 후 non-cyanidic 액을 이용하여 전류밀도 0.02 - 0.06 mA, bubble 및 non-bubble flow를 조건으로 하여 도금된 Au 전극의 특성을 관찰하였다.

A coplanar waveguide employing periodic 3D coupling structures (CWP3DCS) was developed for application in miniaturized on-chip passive components on silicon radio frequency integrated circuits (RFIC). The CWP3DCS showed the shortest wavelength of all silicon-based transmission line structures that have been reported to date. Using CWP3DCS, a highly miniaturized impedance transformer was fabricated on silicon substrate, and the resulting device showed good RF performance in a broad band from 4.6 GHz to 28.6 GHz. The device as was 0.04 mm² in size, which is only 0.74% of the size of the conventional transformer on silicon substrate.

In this paper, methods of designing CPW(coplanar waveguide) traveling-wave electrodes are described and their properties are discussed. Especially, the effect of buffer layer thickness to the microwave characteristics of the CPW electrodes are studied in detail. The trade-off relationship between buffer layer thickness and electro-optical properties of the devices are clearly revealde. The microwave characteristics and driving voltage can be further improved by using selected parameters suggested in this paper. To reduce time and effort in designing CPW electrode structure, exact analytical models are proposed.

A novel unit cell for a high pass filter was designed based on a composite right/left-handed structure that uses a folded coplanar waveguide. The equivalent circuit model for the unit cell was extracted from the geometry of the unit cell, and the effect of each main parameter of the unit cell was analyzed. The equations to calculate the immittance values of the equivalent circuit elements were formulated, and moreover, the dispersion characteristics and energy the distributions of the electromagnetic fields were simulated to determine the characteristics of the composite right/left-handed structure. Finally, the high pass filters were implemented as a series of the proposed unit cells. We show that the experimental results were in good agreement with those obtained from the simulation. Thus, the high pass filter was found to achieve a baseband insertion loss of 3 dB and a stopband attenuation of 70 dB.

A band stop filter is proposed with cascading unit cells that are based on a dual composite right/left-handed (D-CRLH) conductorbacked coplanar waveguide. The parameters of the unit cell have been analyzed to confirm the behavior of each component for the equivalent circuit of the cell. We simulated the dispersion characteristics and energy distribution and have determined that the unit cell has a D-CRLH property. The band stop filter was implemented by symmetrically cascading two of the proposed unit cells. The experimental results for the band stop filter revealed a band rejection performance of 32 dB and a return loss of 0.35 dB in the stopband frequency range from 869MHz to 954MHz. Finally, we show that there is a good agreement in the experimental results and those obtained through the simulations.

Superconducting coplanar waveguide (SCPW) resonators with high quality (Q) factor are widely used for developing quantum sensors and quantum information processors. Here we conducted numerical simulations of SCPW resonators to investigate the relationship between the Q factor and the coupling capacitance of the resonator. Varying the geometrical shape of both ends and coupling parameters of the SCPW resonator resulted in a change of the coupling capacitances and the Q factor as well. Our calculation results indicate that the performance of the SCPW resonator is highly sensitive to the capacitive coupling and searching for an optimal coupling condition would be crucial for developing high-performance SCPW resonator.

High-quality superconducting coplanar waveguide (SCPW) resonators are crucial for developing superconducting quantum information devices and sensors. We designed quarter-wavelength SCPW resonators and fabricated the SCPW resonators using Nb thin film. The resonant characteristics were measured at T = 4.2 K, revealing the intrinsic quality factor and the coupling quality factor to be Qi = 4,784 and Qc = 17, 980, respectively. Our design and fabrication techniques would be very useful to develop a gate-tunable superconducting qubit based on the semiconductor nanostructures.
