Air-bridged Schottky diodes for dynamically tunable millimeter-wave metamaterial phase shifters

Abstract A low loss metamaterial unit cell is presented with an integrated GaAs air-bridged Schottky diode to produce a dynamically tunable reflective phase shifter that is capable of up to 250° phase shift with an experimentally measured average loss of 6.2 dB at V-band. The air-bridged Schottky di...
