摘要
In this work, a new technique to fabricate microwave circuits in paper substrates is proposed. This technique relies on a copper adhesive tape that is shaped by a photo-lithographic process and then transferred to the hosting substrate by means of a sacrificial layer. Microstrip lines in paper substrates have been electromagnetically characterized accounting also for the adhesive layers. Experimental results show an insertion loss better than 0.6 dB/cm at 10 GHz.
