Monolithic Silicon Micromachined Ka-band Filters

This paper describes a novel kind of filter at Kaband on silicon substrate,which is based on the substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) design and MEMS fabrication process. Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) deep etching is used to form the square via-holes of SIW cavities.A 5-pole micromaehined filter is made from rectangular cavities integrated intoA silicon substrate and is fed by coplanar waveguide(CPW) transmission-lines through current probes.Measured results show a 0.5dB loss with a 6.5% bandwidth atA center frequency of 30.9GHz. The final size of the filter chip is 10.0mm×2.7mm×0.4mm.This micromachined filter gives compact size and outstanding performance with relatively mature batch process.
