We report microwave properties of high-T$_c$ superconducting (HTS) microstrip antennas without impedance matching circuits, where the impedance mismatching is obvious under the critical temperature (T$_c$). The superconducting thin films used in this report were YBa$_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ (YBCO) films deposited on MgO substrates produced by pulse laser deposition (PLD) technique. At around T$_c$, 86 K the reflection coefficient rapidly drops, and the standing wave ratio (SWR) becomes almost unity, and the characteristic impedance based on the Smith chart is nearly 50 ${\Omega}$. The reflection coefficient and the SWR of the HTS microstrip antenna were - 62.52 dB and 1.0015, respectively, at the resonant frequency of 11.812 CHz at 86 K.

본 논문은 초고주파 영역에서 개방 단말 동축선을 대신해서 복소 유전율을 측정할 수 있는 MEMS 프로브와 그 응용예로 MEMS 프로브 어레이를 제안한다. MEMS 프로브는 기존의 동축선 프로브와 달리 커넥터와의 연결이 간단하여 일회용으로 프로브를 사용할 수 있다는 점에서 의료용으로 사용할 수 있는 가능성이 있다. 샘플의 유전율 분포를 구하기 위해서 기존의 센서는 반복 접촉을 요구하고 이로 인한 번거로움과 측정 오차를 줄일 목적으로 MEMS 프로브 어레이를 개발 하였다. MEMS 프로브 어레이는 RF 스위치를 사용하여 다수의 측정 포인트를 한번의 센서 접촉으로 측정할 수 있는 새로운 개념의 프로브이다. 1GHz부터 40GHz까지의 광대역에서 0.9% 식염수의 유전율을 측정하여 MEMS 프로브의 성능을 검증하였다.

Parallel coupled microstrip bandpass filter is widely used in microwave circuits. But this filter limits the filter applications because of the narrow bandwidth and the spurious passband at twice the basic passband frequency. In order to solve this problem, a method of the asymmetrical coupled microstrip lines on composite dielectric substrate is presented. Closed form method is used to analyze the asymmetrical coupled microstrip lines on composite dielectric substrate. An experimental filter is fabricated over $33\%$ bandwidth centered at 9GHz. Compared with the filter on a single substrate, this filter on composite substrate shows improvement of the spurious passband.

Pb0.5,Sr0.5TiO3(PST) thin films were deposited on Si with MgO (100) buffer layer by the alkoxide-based sol-gel method. Structural and dielectric properties of PST thin films for the tunable microwave device applications were investigated. For the MgO/Si buffer layer, the PST thin films exhibited highly (100) orientation. The MgO buffer layer affects the stress state of the (100)-oriented PST thin films. The dielectric constant, tunability, and FOM of the highly (100)-oriented PST thin film increased with increasing annealing temperature due to the decrease in lattice distortion. The differences in dielectric properties may be attributed to the change in the film stress. The dielectric constants, dielectric loss and tunability of the PST thin films deposited on the MgO/Si substrates measured at 10 kHz were 822, 0.025, and 80.1%, respectively.

in this work, we designed and characterized a 10Gb/s clock and regeneration circuit. The circuit was realized by integrating high-speed ICs and microwave circuits on alumina substrates. The quadri-correlation method was used for frequency and phase-locked loop. The frequency locking range was 150MHz and the rms jitter generated by the circuit was measured to be less than 1.0ps. The clock and data regeneration circuit was successfully applied to 10Gb/s optical receiver.

This paper has been fabricated the two different type of variable attenuators using a characteristics of a 3 dB directional coupler and pin diodes. One was not analyzed using the conventional even-odd modes but used simple two-port techniques. The resulting scattering parameters described operation characteristics for the general case where the terminating impedances are equal and unequal. After analyzing resistor role of the ${\pi}$ type fixed attenuator. this paper used a pin diode instead of a resistor. The variable attenuators were fabricated using pin diodes for current-controlled attenuation on the coupled ports of a 3 dB branch-line coupler and ${\pi}$ type fixed attenuator. The realized variable attenuators have more than 33 dB attenuation ranges at 2.1 GHz. and the input and output reflection coefficients are less than -13 dB. These results could be applied to mobile communication systems. It can be varied gain of the power amplifier according to change a outdoor environmental temperature and improved linearity.

The modulation performance of 10 Gbps electro-absorption InGaAsP/InGaAsP strain compensated MQW (Multiple Quantum Well) modulator module depends on the modulator as well as the package parasitics. The high frequency package parasitics resulting from various structural discontinuities, limit the modulation bandwidth and increase the chirp-parameter. Therefore, we propose the double bondwires embedded in dielectric materials to minimize the bondwire parasitics. Using the proposed structure with 50 $\Omega$ terminating resistor, the modulation bandwidth is greatly increased by 125 % than the bare chip and the chirp-parameter is also reduced. This technique can be used in optimizing the package of high speed external modulators.

In this study, we developed intelligent spacer built in the internal type UHF PD sensors. 3-Dimensional electro-magnetic simulations were performed to analyze electric-field distribution of the single-phase GIS and three-phase GIS. After considering the spacer's specification, Sensor structures were designed and analyzed using the 3-D EM Simulator. As a result of the simulation the internal type UHF PD sensors were built in. Performance of the sensor built into real scale GIS spacer was measured in terms of return loss and detected Max voltage. And we identified a character of the intelligent spacer by using 5pC partial discharge cell.

In this paper, the power amplifier using active bias circuits for LDMOS(Lateral Diffused Metal Oxide Semiconductor) MRF-21180 is designed and fabricated. According to change the temperature, the gate voltage of LDMOS is controlled by the fabricated active bias circuits which is made of PNP transistor to suppress drain current.

The variation of current consumption in the fabricated 60 watt power amplifier has an excellent characteristics of less than 0.1 A, whereas a passive biasing circuit dissipates more than 0.5 A. The implemented power amplifier has the gain over 9 dB, the gain flatness of less than $\pm$0.1 dB and input and output return loss of less than -6 dB over the frequency range 2.11 $\sim$ 2.17 GHz. The DC operation point of this power amplifier at temperature variation 0 $^{\circ}C$ to 60 $^{\circ}C$ is fixed by active bias circuit.

In this paper, short-wavelength transmission line employing periodically arrayed capacitive devices (PACD) structures were developed for application to a development of miniaturized on-chip passive components on GaAs monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC). The transmission line employing PACD structure showed a wavelength much shorter than conventional microstrip line. Concretely, the wavelength of the transmission line employing PACD structure was 8 % of the conventional microstrip line on GaAs substrate at 5GHz. And It was 38% of the microstrip line employing PPGM at 5GHz. It was recognized that the basic characteristics of the transmission line employing PACD structure were investigated for application to the miniaturized passive on-chip components.
