“…In recent years the rapid expansion in wireless communications has led to emerging applications at millimeter-wave frequencies, such as satellite transmission at 35 GHz, short-range communications, wireless communications systems, and local area networks (WLAN's) at 60 GHz or vehicular collision avoidance radar at 77 GHz. Micromachined devices operating at millimeter-wave frequencies are aimed to be miniature components with high performance, these include EFAB TM [1, 2], PolyStrata TM [3, 4], and SU-8 technology [5, 6]. EFAB TM and PolyStrata TM technologies involve multiple thin layer depositions to achieve tall structures.…”

In this paper, micromachined devices for millimeter-wave applications at U- and V-bands are presented. These structures are\ud designed using a rectangular coaxial line built of gold-coated SU-8 photoresist layers, where the coaxial center conductor is\ud suspended in air by stubs. The designs include a stepped coplanar waveguide (CPW)-to-coaxial transition at 63 GHz, with an\ud insertion loss of 0.39 dB at 67.75 GHz and a return loss better than 210 dB across the band of operation between 54.7 and\ud 70.3 GHz. Two filters have been designed; one centered at 42 GHz with a 10% bandwidth, and another at 63 GHz with a 5%\ud bandwidth. Measured insertion losses of 0.77 and 2.59 dB were obtained for these filters, respectively. Measured return loss\ud lower than 13.8 dB over the passband was achieved for both designs. The structures presented in this paper involve a low-cost\ud manufacturing process suitable to produce integrated subsystems at millimeter waves.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version
