Abstract :
Thin film microstrip lines and grounded coplanar waveguide using a cyclic-olefin copolymer as low loss thin film have been fabricated and characterized up to 220 GHz. Attenuation as low as 0.6 dB/mm around 220 GHz has been measured on grounded coplanar waveguide with a 22-μm-thick cyclic-olefin copolymer thin film.
