Abstract:As RF mixed-signal and patch-antenna-equipped SOC devices are becoming
the dominant products worldwide, concerns over the large real-estate
consumption by the spiral inductors (including those for microstrip antennas
and impedance-matching inductances), as well as their generally
Q-low (quality factor) performance, are now being discussed more than ever. Liao et al. have recently addressed
the Q-low issue via using location-selective proton beam bombardment,
whereby
Q-improvements of 100%–30… Show more
