    A 3D cube antenna for CMOS communication ICs is proposed in this paper. The antenna is fabricated on the surface of a cube for the interior CMOS chip placement. The antenna system consists of a meandered line antenna plated gold on three silicon planes of the cube and a balun on one plane. Three planes are then connected and folded by gold, and fixed in a plastic carrier. This antenna is designed for X-band receivers (8-12 GHz) and its measured peak gain is -1.38 dBi with 7% -10 dB reflection coefficient at 10.35 GHz. The antenna cube interior size is 3 mm×3 mm×3 mm, of which the cubic shape allows for CMOS IC packaging inside the cube’s hollow interior.

  3. An integrated frequency quadrupler operating at 160 GHz, producing 100 mW of output power, and achieving peak efficiency of 25.5% is described. The quadrupler design is based on prior art and consists of GaAs Schottky diodes with epitaxy transferred to a micromachined silicon carrier forming a heterogeneously-integrated chip. A newly-developed fabrication process that eliminates high temperature annealing and utilizes SU-8 for adhesive bonding was employed to realize the circuit. The new process improves device yield and reliability compared to previous implementations.
