“…If the in-plane overlap and in-plane gap closing converters were to be compared, it can be observed that the maximum capacitance of the in-plane overlap converter is very similar to the minimum capacitance of the in-plane gap closing structure. By considering sample comb finger dimensions from the work done by Chiu et al, where A 0 = 1200 m × 200 m, t = 0.05 m, g 0 = 35 m, ε Si 3 N 4 = 7, ε 0 = 8.854 × 10 −12 Fm −1 [14], the maximum capacitance for one set of combs for the in-plane overlap converter will be 0.122 pF, and the minimum capacitance can be treated to be zero. On the other hand, for the same comb finger dimensions, the maximum capacitance will be 0.149 nF and the minimum capacitance will be 0.122 pF for one comb set in the in-plane gap closing generator.…”
