Title :
Slow Wave Propagation in Generalized Cylindrical Waveguides Loaded with a Semiconductor
fDate :
May 31 1983-June 3 1983
Abstract :
For a parallel-plate waveguide and a microstrip line loaded with a semiconductor slab of resistive or active character the complex propagation constant gamma is determined. Gamma is found for higher order branches for microwave and millimeter-wave frequencies between 10 and 140 GHz, representing a very comprehensive study of phase velocity slowing. An assessment of slowing in generalized cylindrical waveguide structures at millimeter-wave frequencies is obtained from this study.
