The effect of longitudinal substrate currents on the losses in silicon substrate coplanar-strip and coplanar waveguides

• The strip currents in silicon substrate CPS and CPW induce longitudinal currents in the substrate (along the strips of the lines) causing extra microwave losses. It is shown that these losses may be minimized without introducing extra masks and process steps if the slot widths in the lines are chosen properly
