Spectral domain analysis of coplanar superconducting line laid on multilayered GaAs substrate

Abstract
In this letter we show the influence of superconducting strips on the propagation characteristics of a MIS or a Schottky contact coplanar line laid on a GaAs substrate. The use of superconducting strips instead of metallic strips makes it possible to decrease losses. However the main purpose of our study is to point out the influence of the superconductor on the slowing factor and on the characteristic impedance.
