Abstract
A highly miniaturized simplified composite right/left handed (SCRLH) mushroom zeroth-order resonator (MZOR) is proposed for bandpass filter (BPF) design. By introducing the U slot etched around the metallic via, more flexible selection of the shunt inductance value can be achieved compared with the original one. As the length of U -slot increased, zeroth-order resonant frequency of the MZOR decreased, even 88% size reduction can be achieved. Finally, a bandpass filter based on the proposed MZOR is designed, fabricated and measured. The simulated and measured results are presented and good agreement is obtained.
