Abstract :
A comprehensive characterisation of valley microstrip lines with or without slits is proposed. When applied to very small multilayer MMICs, such new lines exhibit appreciable packaging and metallisation effects. Moreover, their characteristic parameters can be adjusted by changing the oblique angle and the slit width, which leads to flexible circuit design.<>
