摘要
This paper presents the design, manufacturing, and characterization of a waveguide based on electromagnetic-bandgap (EBG) technology working in W-band. A modified silicon EBG woodpile structure was used in order to improve the matching performance of the EBG waveguide to a standard rectangular waveguide. The transition between the silicon EBG woodpile waveguide and the conventional WR10 waveguide was optimized and a 13.5% bandwidth around 90 GHz was achieved. The measured insertion losses remained better than 3 dB in the overall working bandwidth.
