Abstract
The authors report a new optoelectronic technique for tuneable microwa ve matching. It is based on the illumination of a DC biased microstrip resonator on a silicon substrate. The matched frequency is tuned e.g. between 5 and 7 GHz, with a return loss over 45 dB, by varying the op tical power and the DC bias.
