Analysis and Applications of Uniplanar Compact Photonic Bandgap Structures

Abstract
This paper reviews recent advancements in the research and development of Uniplanar Compact Photonic Bandgap (UCPBG) structures for microwave and millimeter-wave applications. These planar periodic structures are particularly attractive and have been intensively investigated due to their easy fabrication, low cost, and compatibility with standard planar circuit technology. In this paper, basic properties of UC-PBG will be studied such as the slowwave effect, distinct stopband and passband, leakage suppression of surface waves, and realization of a magnetic surface. Owing to the different features of UC-PBG, these structures have been applied to microwave circuits to improve microstrip filters and patch antennas, to perform harmonic tuning in power amplifiers, to suppress leakage in conductor-backed coplanar waveguide, to realize TEM waveguides, and to implement low-profile cavity-backed slot antennas.
