A surface-wave I/O transceiver is proposed and validated at 140 GHz in 65 nm CMOS. By generating, modulating and propagating surface plasmonic signal, the all-surface-wave I/O is prototyped with crosstalk-immune owning to the sub-wavelength localization of electromagnetic wave at the metal/dielectri...
