Abstract
Backside wafer processing has been developed for discrete beamlead diodes and beamlead MMICs. Backside etching allows arbitrary substrate geometry. The beamleads are used to make electrical connections to a waveguide block and/or serve as substrateless transmission lines. The fabrication of an 82.5 to 330 GHz MMIC balanced frequency quadrupler is presented.
