Wideband Miniaturized Design of Complementary Spoof Surface Plasmon Polaritons Waveguide Based on Interdigital Structures

Abstract In this paper, we present to achieve a broadband miniaturized transmission waveguide based on complementary spoof surface plasmon polaritons (CSSPPs). For this purpose, a novel SSPP design that consists of a corrugated slot line and a group of additional interdigital structures (ISs) is pro...
