Abstract :
This paper studies scattering characteristics of an optically controlled interdigital gap fabricated on the semiconductor microstrip line, and proposes the potential application of this gap to the microwave phase shifter with small variation in amplitude. Experiments have been carried out by making interdigital gap on the silicon chip and using the semiconductor laser diode.
