A 310°/3.6dB K-band phaseshifter using paraelectric BST thin films
Résumé
Ferro- and para-electric BaSrTiO/sub 3/ (/spl epsiv//sub r//spl sim/350 and tg/spl delta//spl sim/5/spl times/10/sup -2/ at 0V) thin films were deposited by low-cost sol-gel techniques. Subsequently, the films were used for fabricating coplanar waveguide phaseshifters using tunable finger-shaped capacitors. A 310/spl deg/ phaseshift was obtained at 30GHz and 35V of tuning voltage with 3.6dB of insertion loss yielding a figure of merit of 85/spl deg//dB.
