Thanks to the symmetry properties of the device, the concepts of even and odd networks can be applied, leading to simple, closed-form expressions for coupler analysis which compare favourably with experimental results. The same model allows the most important parasitic effects to be understood and quantitatively described. It is shown that the discrepancies between computed and experimental data can be accurately explained in terms of the parasitics arising from junction discontinuities. Finally, design data for alumina-microstrip interdigitated couplers are presented in graphic form.","PeriodicalId":377507,"journal":{"name":"1976 6th European Microwave Conference","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1976-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130588322","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The talk gives a review of some of these effects. The thin-film optical waveguide, a 2 dimensional (2D) propagation medium, may be considered as a versatile artificial dielectric. Trough local design of the guide, a variety of optical elements for this 2D optics can be constructed in analogy to known 3D optical elements. Periodic guides show pass- and stopbands and act as reflectors and filters, and they are used in modulators and deflectors. Warping a planar guide into the third dimension offers new possibilities of optics which do not exist in ordinary, 3D optics. Thick optical waveguides, with homogeneous or graded index distribution, can form real optical images. Of particular interest for applications in micro-optics is the formation of multiple images in homogeneous rectangular waveguides.","PeriodicalId":377507,"journal":{"name":"1976 6th European Microwave Conference","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1976-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115154968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Si SIT exhibits GHz operation: 200 MHz-40 watts, 1 GHz-5 watts, cut-off frequency is more than 2.0 GHz. Further developments of higher frequency and, higher power devices can be realized in distributed structure and travelling-wave operation of SIT.

In particular, the propagation constants and the mode mapping of the propagating TE and TM modes, the sensitivity of the effective refractive in dex to overlay thickness and diffusion constant, the single mode propagation criteria are derived when the substrate anisotropy is defined by a permettivity diagonal tensor. Then we have considered the effects induced by a modulating r.f. voltage that makes not null the permettivity tensor off-diagonal terms.
