Engineers working within the D band are increasingly looking for better ways to solve the issue of reflected waves. "When you get above 110 GHz, it’s sort of uncharted territory,” explains Ed Loewenstein, Chief Architect at NI. “Your connectivity gets strange, and cables no longer work well. So, most things are done in waveguides.” Signal reflections, also known as mismatches, are undesirable waves, or ripples, [...]

Faraday rotation isolators designed for room temperature operation do not work well at cryogenic temperatures. The primary cause is temperature-dependent ferrite magnetization. Everything RF recently published a technical paper written by Micro Harmonics Founder, David Porterfield that addresses how to achieve optimal performance in a Faraday rotation isolator at cryogenic temperatures.

The call for ‘more D band’ has gone out. With the ability to transmit 100 Gigabits per second (Gbps), the D band will unlock a number of technologies across a wide range of industries. Electronic Specifier recently published an article featuring Micro Harmonics and how our millimeter wave components are helping to unlock commercial applications that include high-precision sensing, radio astronomy, and airport security detectors.

Everything RF recently published an article that discussed the issue of reflected waves at D band. The story looks at NI which had been trying to deliver reliable test, measurement and prototyping equipment for D band, but was struggling with mismatched waves. The solution was to use our millimeter wave isolators. Read the full story here:

Micro Harmonics CEO, David Porterfield, was quoted in an article that recently published in Electronics World where the publication attempts to answer a key question: ‘can the infrastructure for D band be built out within the next 5-10 years allowing the impending move up the EM spectrum.

The Electric Current Magazine featured our millimeter wave hybrid circulators in a story in this month’s print issue. To learn more about how hybrid circulators are enabling engineers to operate at sub-THz frequencies, read the story here:

Today, Inc. Magazine announced that Micro Harmonics Corporation (MHC) has once again ranked as one of the fastest-growing private companies in America. After two consecutive years on the Regional Inc. 5000 list, MHC makes its first appearance on the Inc. 5000 national list, coming in at number 3,736. You can read the press release here.

Electronic Products Test & Design featured an article written by our COO, Diane Kees, in their August 2023 issue. The story, titled: Exploring the Wealth of Opportunities in the D-band, was featured on the cover and is on page 28. You can read the full article here.

Microwave Journal recently featured Micro Harmonics’ new hybrid circulators in WR-12 (70 to 86 GHz), WR-10 (85 to 104 GHz) and WR-8 (107 to 133 GHz) millimeter waveguide bands in their June 2023 magazine, as well as online, and on their Frequency Matters podcast. Read the press release here.

“The D-band is the new E-band” read the shirts worn by Virginia Diodes (VDI) employees at a recent microwave symposium. Covering 60-90 GHz, the E-band is a well-established high-capacity solution for a number of mmWave applications. Advancements in test and measurement equipment are allowing millimeter wave component manufacturers and systems designers to ramp up production at mmWave and THz frequencies.
