The effects of various parameters of a symmetric inductor structure on the Q-factor and inductance are thoroughly analysed. The inductor has been designed on Sillcon-on-Sapphire (SOS) substrate because it offers superior characteristics of low substrate loss due to the high resistivity of the sapphire material and low capacitive coupling to the substrate. It is also been suspended from the substrate in order to reduce the substrate loss and improved the Q factor. Results indicate that a maximum Q factor of 192 for a 1.13nH inductance at 12GHz is achieved after optimising the symmetric inductor. 2010-08-03T04:23:37Z 2010-08-03T04:23:37Z 2009-01-19 Working Paper p. 77-80 978-142444669-8 http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/freeabs_all.jsp?arnumber=5397444 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/8435 en Proceedings of 1st Asia Pacific Conference on Postgraduate Research in Microelectronics and Electronics, PrimeAsia 2009 IEEE
