Abstract :
A finite element field analysis program is developed to study the effect of localized finite conductivity region in the Schottky-contact CPW in the slow-wave application. Theoretical results obtained for the MIS (layered) CPW structure show good agreements with those in the existing literature. Our analysis indicates the new Schottky-contact slow-wave CPW structure under analysis is viable for low loss and wideband electronically tunable phase shifter application.
