Use Metal Catalog to Design Coplanar Waveguide
Open the metal catalog.
mc = MetalCatalog; open(mc)
List the properties of the metal material Aluminium
.
s = find(mc,'Aluminium')
s = struct with fields:
Name: 'Aluminium'
Conductivity: 37700000
Thickness: 30
Units: 'mil'
Comments: ''
Use the above metal in a coplanar waveguide.
m = metal('Aluminium'); waveguide = coplanarWaveguide('Conductor',m)
waveguide = coplanarWaveguide with properties: Length: 0.0231 Width: 0.0039 Spacing: 2.0000e-04 ViaSpacing: [0.0011 0.0070] ViaDiameter: 5.0000e-04 Height: 0.0016 GroundPlaneWidth: 0.0300 Substrate: [1×1 dielectric] Conductor: [1×1 metal] IsShielded: 0
View the waveguide using show function.
