    Författare :Sten Gunnarsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; G-band; double-balanced Gilbert mixer; sub-harmonically pumped resistive mixer; pHEMT; receiver; image reject mixer; dual-quadrature mixer; balanced resistive mixer; resistive mixer; 220 GHz; high data rate; drain mixer; 53 GHz; single-chip; V-band.; radiometer; mixer; broadband wireless communication; multifunctional; MMIC; GaAs; mHEMT; transmitter; 60 GHz;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis treats the design and characterization of different mixer and multifunctional monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs) in GaAs pHEMT and mHEMT technologies. The MMICs operate at the V (50 – 75 GHz) and G (140 – 220 GHz) bands and several of them demonstrate state-of-the-art performance, level of integration, novel topologies, and/or novel functionality.

  3. 3. Micromachined Gap Waveguide Devices

    Författare :Sofia Rahiminejad; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEMS; Gap waveguides; RF; High frequency; GHz; Waveguide;

    Sammanfattning : Gap waveguide technology is a new technology that is well suited for millimeter and submillimeter applications. Compared to conventional rectangular waveguides, this technology does not need any solid conductive walls to confine the wave by utilizing metamaterial surfaces such as "bed of nails" that creates an artificial magnetic conductive surface (AMC).

  4. 4. Characterisation of terahertz integrated membrane circuits

    Författare :Johanna Hanning; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; waveguide width error; calibration; THz; membrane circuit; TRL; measurement uncertainty; single-flange 2-port; 220–325 GHz; cable flex; WR-03; VNA; S-parameter;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis a novel measurement setup and thru-reflect-line (TRL) calibration kit for vector network analyser (VNA) measurements at 220 GHz to 325 GHz (WR-03) is presented. Measurements on passive membrane circuit devices under test (DUTs) show improvement in the S-parameters compared to a waveguide integrated membrane circuit setup in previous work, especially in reducing the ripples and increasing repeatability of the measurements.
