Stripline assembly for use in microwave circuits and method of fabricating same

Abstract

Abstract A stripline assembly suitable for use as a delay line in a microwave amplifier tube or the like is formed by bonding a dielectric isolator at one face thereof to a conductive stripline of a highly conductive metal such as copper, and at the opposite face to a highly conductive support base which also may be of copper. The dielectric material which may be of a high thermal conductivity ceramic is bonded to the aforementioned metallic components by depositing a thin metallic layer of material such as molybdenum onto each of the ceramic faces to achieve a good metal-ceramic bond. A second metallic layer which may be of copper is then deposited onto the molybdenum to provide a medium which can be brazed to the copper stripline and the support base, as the case may be.
