Characterization of Alumina Ribbon Ceramic Substrates for 5G and mm-Wave Applications

Nahid Aslani-Amoli et al.

Summary: In this article, a recently developed material technology called Alumina Ribbon Ceramic (ARC) is investigated as a potential substrate for 5G and mm-wave applications. The ARC substrate is characterized in the frequency range of 3-50 GHz, and various planar transmission lines and test structures are analyzed. The results show that ARC has excellent performance, with a dielectric constant of 10.12 and a loss tangent ranging from 6.6x10(-5) to 1.3x10(-3) over the frequency range of 3-170 GHz.

Substrate Integrated Waveguide Components on Alumina for E-band Applications

Stefano Moscato et al.

Summary: This manuscript presents a set of Substrate Integrated Waveguide components realized through thin-film technology and suitable for E-band applications. These components show superior performance and increased operational frequency by using alumina as the dielectric material. Special design rules are used to mitigate the fragility of the ceramic substrate and the higher dielectric constant allows for a smaller die size with advantages in stiffness and handling robustness. Three components have been designed, manufactured and tested, showing interesting performance across the 70-80 GHz spectrum portion.

A Review of 5G Front-End Systems Package Integration

Atom O. Watanabe et al.

Summary: Advances in data rates, spectrum efficiency, and energy efficiency are driving improvements in RF communication networks, with 5G networks projected to have 100x higher wireless data rates and lower latency than current 4G networks. Challenges in packaging RF front-end modules include stringent signal-loss requirements in millimeter-wave bands and the need for precision-impedance designs with smaller footprints and thickness. Heterogeneous integration in 3-D ultrathin packages with higher component densities and performance is necessary for realizing 5G systems.

Design of Compact Substrate Integrated Waveguide Based Triple- and Quad-Band Power Dividers

Nrusingha Charan Pradhan et al.

Summary: This letter presents the design of compact triple- and quad-band power dividers based on substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technology, featuring unequal complementary split-ring resonators (CSRRs) and U-shaped slots (USSs) for control of center frequencies. The designed PDs, converted from dual-frequency to triple-band and quad-band operations, demonstrate good performance in terms of return loss and isolation, with overall compact sizes.

Yilong Zhu et al.

Summary: A compact filter with wide-stopband characteristics is designed based on hybrid microstrip and SIW technologies. The complex structure, including UIRs and SIW cavities with staggered higher mode frequencies, effectively suppresses various harmonics. Experimental results confirm the good performance of the filter, which has an ultrawide stopband compared with conventional SIW filters.

Transmission Lines on Alumina Ribbon Ceramic Substrate Material for 30 to 170 GHz Wireless Applications

Nahid Aslani-Amoli et al.

Summary: This paper introduces a newly developed material technology at Corning, Alumina Ribbon Ceramic, and characterizes its electrical properties in the frequency range of 30-170 GHz. The dielectric constant of the Alumina Ribbon Ceramic is found to be around 9.87, with the loss tangent varying from 0.0003 to 0.0013 in 30-170 GHz. The performance evaluation of microstrip and coplanar waveguide (CPW) lines on the Alumina Ribbon Ceramic demonstrates its excellent electrical properties for applications in 5G and sub-THz frequency bands, showing that CPW lines exhibit the best performance in terms of loss up to 170 GHz.
