  • Abstract
    This paper describes a new model for an open-ended microstrip line under illumination for the design of optically-controlled microwave devices. The model gives an analytical expression of the load impedance of the open circuit as a function of the line geometry and the electrical parameters of the substrate on which it is manufactured. Measurements are made to validate the model over a wide frequency range and show a very good agreement between modelling and experiment.
