Microwave to Sub-THz Micromachined Circuits
The motivation for the fabrication of high-frequency circuits using micromachining technology is due to high levels of functionality with low power consumption, precise dimensions, and electrically activated moving parts. In recent years’ research has been carried out on the development of passive components, novel switching circuits, phase shifters, antennas, and tunable components for millimeter wave RF front end for 5G and radar applications. This talk will present the design, development, and complete characterization of a variety of micromachined
switches, novel compact analog and digital phase shifters, and multiport switching networks. Reliability analysis of RF micromachined devices with emphasis on multiport switching networks, 4-to-5-bit phase digital shifters, and tunable filters will also be discussed. Design guidelines on micromachined antenna development and integration with passive elements and phase shifters will be briefly presented. Next, the design and development of metamaterial-inspired micromachined switches at sub-millimeter wave frequencies will be described.
