| Summary: | The concept of photoconductivity is utilized in a number of microwave applications such as switches
and attenuators. Optically controlled microwave attenuators prove an alternative to the conventional
attenuators due to their simplicity, easy of operation, and very narrow ranges of continuously varying
attenuation levels available. This paper describes the design of such configurations of optically controlled
attenuators on a microstrip line fabricated on a semiconductor substrate. |
