Abstract
Aluminum Oxide microwave dielectric ceramics exhibit good microwave dielectric characteristics and suitable be used in the microwave devices. In this letter, using screen-printing technique and Ag/Pd paste, a novel dual-mode 2.4 GHz microstrip bandpass filter with U-shaped defected ground structure is screen printed on the Aluminum Oxide (Al2O3, relative dielectric constant=9.8) microwave dielectric ceramic substrate. In addition, a pair of input/output microstrip lines are designed to be 50 Ω and coupled to a λ/4×λ/4 square loop resonator. And in the ground plane, a U-shaped defected ground structure is used toλ excite the degenerate modes, which can be considered as a perturbation element to control the odd-mode frequency and -3 dB bandwidth of the bandpass filter. Finally, the coupling effects between these degenerate modes are presented and detailed investigated.
