“…On the other side, the standard CMOS process is regarded as a feasible manufacturing scheme since it has the property of easy integration, easy for large-scale manufacture, and low cost. Similar design scheme for BPF working on 60 GHz millimeter waveband by utilizing CMOS process has been proposed by previous researchers [1]- [3]. However, most of the designed BPF has various disadvantages, e.g.…”

“…[2], the dual-mode loop resonator BPF presented good selectivity response, nevertheless, the 4.9 dB insertion loss was still relatively high, and moreover, the large chip size and the special input position restricted its application. The folded microstrip line BPF [3] successfully employed at 60 GHz with insertion loss of 2.7 dB, however it is difficult to be utilized in the 60 GHz waveband wireless internet standard because of its more than 30 GHz band width.…”

This paper presents a design of an improved on-chip open loop resonator band pass filter (OLR-BPF) for 60 GHz millimeter-wave applications in 0.18 µm CMOS technology. The proposed on-chip BPF employs the folded open loop structure on patterned ground shields. The adoption of a folded structure for the OLR-BPF and utilization of two transmissions zero permits a compact size and high selectivity for the BPF. In addition, the patterned ground shields obviously slowed down the guided waves, which enables a further reduction of the physical length of the resonator and finally an improvement of the insertion loss of the BPF. By comparison between the electromagnetic (EM) simulations and measurement results, the proposed BPF has the center frequency of 59 GHz, insertion loss 2.77 dB, band width 14 GHz, return loss is less than 27.5 dB, and chip size 910×650 µm 2 (including bonding pads).

“…These on-chip active devices are conventionally integrated using planar transmission lines. However, on-chip integration of planar transmission line passive components degrades their performances due to the conductor loss [2], [3]. Therefore, a hybrid integrated technology, where all high-quality passive components are implemented using a suitable off-chip planar integrated technology and the active devices are placed on chip, has become the most promising approach [4]- [6].…”

A low-loss sub-millimeter-wave/THz integrated dielectric waveguide is presented. The proposed waveguide consists of a highly resistive Silicon (Si) guiding channel bonded to a glass substrate. To reduce the waveguide insertion loss due to the glass substrate, part of the substrate below the Si guiding channel is etched. A periodic configuration of supporting beams is used to hold the Si guiding channel over the glass substrate. A low-cost and high-precision fabrication process, which is fully compatible with current Si-based fabrication technologies, is developed for the proposed waveguide. Numerical simulations and experiments are conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed waveguide. Measured attenuation constant of the proposed waveguide is 0.0346 dB/ (average value) over the 440-500 GHz band.Index Terms-Dielectric waveguide, THz integrated circuit, Silicon-on-Glass (SOG) waveguide.

This paper presents a miniaturized 10/24-GHz rat-race coupler using synthetic transmission lines on a glass substrate. Compared to a standard CMOS process, the proposed CMOS-compatible glass substrate features lower substrate losses and thicker metal layers. The area-consuming transmission line layouts are implemented by the meandered synthetic transmission lines with high slow-wave factors and low losses. The coupler based on the synthetic TLs is designed, fabricated, and verified. Good agreement between the simulation and measurement is also observed. The chip size is merely 2.5 × 2.2 mm 2 which is comparable to on-chip levels.
