New prospective coplanar metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS)monolithic structure

Research work on various MIS transmission lines is well documented. Useful slow-wave propagation with low loss is always exhibited in recently proposed lower frequency ranges (several GHz). The author is concerned with the essential properties of the micrometre-size coplanar MIS lines. A new loss-reducing monolithic MIS is proposed with reference to physical considerations to ensure a low-cost mechanism
