Abstract

This paper describes the experimental performance of a ferroelectric lumped element filter/switch grown on silicon substrate. The filtering/switching operation is based on the dc electric field controlled dielectric constant of a Ba0.25Sr0.75TiO3 (BST) thin-film. The switch is made by changing the cut-off frequency of a low-pass filter. 18 dB isolation has been demonstrated under 15 V bias at 25 GHz with great consistency being observed among different samples. The properties of the BST thin-film has been extracted by comparing the electromagnetic full-wave simulation with the experimental measurements.
