Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) A new micromachined coplanar waveguide (CPW) 3-dB hybrid coupler has been demonstrated. A micromachined enhanced coupling structure at the middle of coupled transmission lines is employed to obtain high directivity. The coupling structure is composed of alternately overlapping plated conductors employing micromachined air-gap structures. This structure relaxes the tolerance of the gap between the coupled lines, and mitigates production error. We fabricate the CPW hybrid coupler with the enhanced coupling structure on a silicon substrate to verify the performance. The results showed the return loss of 28dB, the insertion loss of 0.7dB, and the isolation of 25dB at 13GHz.
