Description
Summary:This paper examines the influence of the materials on the electrical properties of conductors for both high speed MCM structures and microstrip applications. Calculated figures for attenuation in microstrip lines are compared with published results. It is seen that the nature and physical structure as well as the geometrical shape of a conductor track all strongly influence the microwave performance. However, it is also clear that real materials have been developed for these applications which closely approach the behavior predicted for ideal conductors. It is proposed that microwave performance can be predicted by modelling the d.c. conductor materials and extrapolating to high frequencies.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
