Abstract :
Compact integrated circuits for millimetre-wave frequencies can be realised by using coplanar waveguide technology and single- or dual-gate HEMTs, allowing a simplified chip processing and a smaller chip size. Due to the resulting cost reduction, this technology has the potential for meeting the targets of increasing volume markets in the field of communication or automotive applications
