In this paper, inductors are realised on 20 /spl Omega/.cm Si wafers using thin-film Wafer-Level Packaging (WLP) technology: two low K benzo-cyclobutene (BCB, /spl epsiv//sub r/=2.65) dielectric layers and a thick Cu interconnect layer are deposited on floating Si substrates. Inductors with 5/spl mu/m minimum lines and spaces are demonstrated for a 5/spl mu/m thick Cu layer, hereby leading to very compact and high performance inductors: maximum Q-factors of 25 have been obtained for inductances in the range of 1 to 5 nH. It is shown how Q-factor and resonance frequency vary as a function of the inductor layout parameters and the thickness of the BCB and Cu layers. The realised 50 /spl Omega/ CPW lines (lateral dimension of 40 /spl mu/m) have a measured loss of only 0.2 dB/mm@25 GHz. A good agreement between measured and simulated performance has been obtained.","PeriodicalId":332696,"journal":{"name":"2003 Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems, 2003.

Previous THz sources were based on electrical methods using transistor oscillators (to 0.5 THz), diode frequency multipliers (to 2.5 THz), and femtosecond optical pulse switches. Infrared emitters such as the Quantum Cascade Laser in the III-V semiconductors have been difficult to extend to THz frequencies due to reststrahlen absorption by polar phonons. In contrast, Si has lower absorption and devices may be able to operate over a broader THz range than the III-V semiconductors. This report describes the fabrication and characterization of THz sources based on three different design approaches: intersubband transitions in Silicon Germanium quantum wells, resonant state transitions in boron-doped strained SiGe quantum wells, and dopant impurity transitions in doped Si layers.","PeriodicalId":332696,"journal":{"name":"2003 Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems, 2003.

The cross is designed for a MEMS switch matrix where the different signal paths have to be isolated against each other. This allows one to have several 'on-state' signal paths at the same time in the matrix. One signal path is routed via an underpath metallisation while the other signal path is routed with an air bridge. A metal sheet connecting both coplanar ground metallisations is used as a shield to achieve good isolation. The optimisation of all elements from the cross is done with a full wave FDTD simulator. The achieved isolation between the two signal paths of the coplanar RF cross is above 40 dB up to 40 GHz. For both signal paths is in measurement and simulation for frequencies up to 20 GHz the return loss better than 18 dB and the insertion loss is below 0.7 dB.","PeriodicalId":332696,"journal":{"name":"2003 Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems, 2003.

The current gain of transistors (type A), using a high density plasma SiO/sub 2/ for planarization of the inter metal dielectric, decreases with stress time. The decrease of the current gain is caused by an enhanced recombination in the emitter base space charge region. The enhanced recombination results in an increase of the base current Ib. In contrast, the current gain of devices (type B), employing a spin on glass SiO/sub 2/ for planarization, increases due to hydrogen passivation of recombination centers on the polycrystalline Si/crystalline SiGe interface. The passivation of recombination centers causes a decrease of the base current. Also a time-to-failure extrapolation methodology for the creation of recombination centers in the emitter base space charge region is presented.","PeriodicalId":332696,"journal":{"name":"2003 Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems, 2003.

At the same time, both lateral scaling as well as the move to a raised-extrinsic-base structure have reduced R/sub B/ by 4.5/spl times/, contributing an additional 1 dB F/sub min/ drop.
