Abstract:
We use a 3D printer to fabricate rectangular dielectric single mode waveguides for 120 GHz. The rectangular waveguides consisting of polystyrene showed an attenuation of 6.3 dB/m, which is low enough for short devices. We also characterize 3D printed Y-splitters and a 1x3-splitter based on multimode interference. Further, we construct and measure a variable planar waveguide coupler which can be used as a 3-dB coupler, a cross-coupler and no coupler at all.
