Abstract
Novel one-dimensional (1-D) microstrip photonic bandgap (PBG) cells are proposed. They are sections of microstrip line with special perforation patterns etched on the line itself. As examples, two types of PBG cell are investigated. Simulation and experiments show that the cell exhibits remarkable slow-wave and band-stop effects. An equivalent L-C circuit is used to model the PBG cell. Several cells connected in series form an excellent band-stop filter.
