Abstract
The application of photonic bandgap structures (PBG´s) as substrates in microstrip circuits has been investigated. The effects of substrate thickness, microstrip transmission line location, and length of the PBG structure were studied using a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation and experimental measurement. A low-pass filter with a very wide high-frequency rejection bandwidth was constructed from a serial connection of many different PBG structures
