Abstract :
Slow-wave propagation along fin-lines with periodic-loaded stubs has been investigated by means of both a transmission-line experimental procedure and a three-dimensional spectral domain approach with modal spectra in the guided direction. Some important features such as passband and stopband for passive elements (e.g. couplers and filters) are discussed from the measured and calculated results.
