Abstract

In this paper, a novel method is presented for calculation of the capacitance matrix of two-dimensional (2-D) interconnection lines embedded in layered dielectric media. In this method, Pade approximation is used to accelerate the convergence of Green´s function, which leads to obvious improvements of computational efficiency for interconnect parameters. The obtained results show good agreement with those in previous publications
