High Frequency Interconnects on Silicon Substrates

Abstract

The measured propagation constant of coplanar waveguide (CPW) on silicon wafers as a function of the line dimensions and the resistivity of the Si wafer; CPW on GaAs wafers as a function of the line dimensions, and thin film microstrip (TFMS) polyimide fabricated with polyimide on the surface of a silicon wafer is presented. It is shown that the attenuation of CPW on 2500 Omega-cm Si wafers and-of TFMS with a polyimide thickness of 4 micrometer or greater is comparable to the attenuation of similar lines on GaAs.
