The measurement of the radiation and matching performance of millimeter-wave antennas is
a very challenging topic. As a single antenna usually has a size of a few square millimeters …

Passive devices and spiral inductors in particular suffer severely from losses in the silicon
substrate underneath. This major component in limiting the quality factor of spiral inductors …

The design of integrated systems requires the knowledge of the values of the effective
permittivity of the substrate. Designing antenna using computer-aided design tools is a long …

In this paper, we demonstrate the ability of deep level doping to reduce the substrate losses
in coplanar waveguides and spiral inductors. Room temperature resistivity of Au doped …

For mm-waves, two types of low-loss waveguide are analysed, designed and measured.
One is the hollow substrate integrated waveguide (HSIW) in which the inner dielectric of a …

High resistivity handle wafers suitable for radio frequency integrated circuit application have
been achieved through deep level doping compensation technique. Ion implantation and …

The measurement of the radiation and matching performance of millimeter-wave antennas is
a very challenging task. As a single 60 GHz antenna has usually a size of few millimeters …

In this paper, we present a radiation pattern measurement setup for 60 GHz antennas
available at the Université Nice-Sophia Antipolis. We especially detail the measurements of …
