Foreword
There has been tremendous growth in the miniaturization of RF circuits and components in both VHF/UHF and microwave regions. Efforts are already on the way for extending the same technologies to millimeter waves. Terahertz (THz) technology is also knocking at the door with tremendous potential for miniaturization. For the miniaturization of RF circuits, the use of microstrip was the first step and then MMICs have played a major role. The present book talks about the use of silicon substrate for manufacturing RF circuits and devices where even MEMS switches, filters, and delay lines can be fabricated. The present technology is being pursued seriously by researchers and manufacturers. In India, besides a few IITs and NITs, organizations like ISRO, DRDO, and CSIR are also working in this direction, and Semi-Conductor Laboratory, Department of Space/ISRO, has been established to give an impetus to this technology. The present book “Si-RF Technology” touches many aspects of the design of RF circuits and components on a silicon substrate. Both the authors, Ayan Karmakar and Kamaljeet Singh, are experienced in the field and do have theoretical knowledge and practical experience. They have put their efforts to bring out thi
