摘要
This paper presents all experimental study of copper coplanar waveguides fabricated oil silicon substrates suitable for use in bulk CMOS IC fabrication. The waveguides were separated from the substrate by thick layers of polyimide. Waveguide performance is compared to that of aluminum control devices underlayed with silicon dioxide. The lower resistance of the copper and improved substrate isolation obtained with the low-k polyimide dielectric provide a significant performance boost compared to the controls. Distributed parameters for these CPW's are provided for frequencies lip to 15 GHz to support circuit, applications for theses devices.
