[0020] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. However, it should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. In the following detailed description, for the sake of explanation, many specific details are set forth to provide a comprehensive understanding of the embodiments of the present disclosure. However, obviously, one or more embodiments can also be implemented without these specific details. In addition, in the following description, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted to avoid unnecessarily confusing the concepts of the present disclosure.

[0021] The terms used herein are merely for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. The terms "including", "comprising", etc. used herein indicate the presence of the described features, steps, operations, and / or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, or components.

[0022] All terms used herein (including technical and scientific terms) have the meanings commonly understood by those skilled in the art, unless otherwise defined. It should be noted that the terms used herein should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with the context of this specification, and should not be interpreted in an idealized or overly rigid manner.

[0023] Figure 1 The structural diagram of a high-frequency transmission line is schematically shown.

[0024] As Figure 1 shown, the high-frequency transmission line of this embodiment includes a substrate 1, a signal electrode 3, and a ground electrode 4. The substrate 1 includes an upper surface and a lower surface opposite to each other in the depth direction. The signal electrode 3 is disposed in the middle of the upper surface of the substrate 1. The ground electrode 4 is disposed on the lower surface of the substrate 1 and on both sides of the signal electrode 3 on the upper surface of the substrate 1. At least one through hole 2 penetrating the ground electrode 4 and the substrate 1 in the depth direction is formed on the ground electrode 4. The through hole 2 includes a first portion 21 and second portions 22 located on opposite sides of the first portion. The shape of the first portion 21 is a cuboid, and the shape of the second portion 22 is a cylinder with a bow-shaped or semi-circular cross section. This high-frequency transmission line can effectively improve the signal shielding effect, reduce the crosstalk between signals, and improve the signal transmission quality of the high-frequency transmission line.

[0025] It can be understood that the height of the through hole 2 is equal to the height of the first portion 21 and is equal to the height of the second portion 22. The height of the through hole 2 is equal to the sum of the thicknesses of the substrate 1, the ground electrode 4 on the upper surface of the substrate, and the ground electrode 4 on the lower surface of the substrate.

[0026] In some embodiments, the number of through holes 2 formed on the ground electrodes 4 on both sides of the upper surface of the substrate 1 is the same. For example, 3 through holes, 4 through holes, 6 through holes, etc. are respectively formed on both sides.

[0027] In some embodiments, the through holes 2 formed on the ground electrodes 4 on both sides of the upper surface of the substrate 1 are symmetrically distributed along the signal electrode 3. Symmetrical distribution can reduce the reflection and interference of high-frequency signals during transmission, thereby maintaining the integrity of high-frequency signals.

[0028] In some embodiments, the through holes 2 formed on the ground electrodes 4 on both sides of the upper surface of the substrate 1 are evenly distributed. The evenly distributed through holes 2 can reduce the impedance change and reflection of high-frequency signals during interlayer switching, thereby helping to maintain the integrity of high-frequency signals

[0029] Figure 2 The structural diagram of the through hole in the high-frequency transmission line is schematically shown.

[0030] As Figure 1As shown, the through-hole of this embodiment includes a first part 21 and second parts 22 located on opposite sides of the first part. The shape of the first part 21 is a cuboid, and the shape of the second part 22 is a cylinder with a bow-shaped or semi-circular cross-section. The radii of the two second parts 22 are the same, that is, the radii of the two bows are the same or the radii of the two semi-circles are the same.

[0031] In some embodiments, a conductive layer is provided on the surface of the through-hole 2. The conductive layer can be provided on the surface of the through-hole 2 by electroplating or coating. The material of the conductive layer can be a conductive material such as gold or copper.

[0032] In one embodiment, the radius of the second part 22 is 0.109 mm. The length of the cuboid is 0.149 mm. The height of the through-hole 2 is 0.202 mm. A gold-plated conductive layer is attached to the inner wall of the through-hole 2. The structure of this embodiment can achieve simulation results of S21@-3dB 83.09 GHz and S11@-10dB 81.05 GHz, which are better than the simulation results of S21@-3dB 76.42 GHz and S11@-10dB 78.23 GHz of a cylindrical through-hole structure with the same radius.

[0033] In another embodiment, the radius of the second part 22 is 0.08 mm. The length of the cuboid is 0.14 mm. The height of the through-hole 2 is 0.202 mm. A gold-plated conductive layer is attached to the inner wall of the through-hole 2. The structure of this embodiment can achieve simulation results of S21@-3dB 76.77 GHz and S11@-10dB 78.36 GHz, which are better than the simulation results of S21@-3dB 66.65 GHz and S11@-10dB 64.84 GHz of a cylindrical through-hole structure with the same radius.

[0034] In yet another embodiment, the radius of the second part 22 is 0.109 mm. The length of the cuboid is 0.149 mm. The height of the through-hole 2 is 0.15 mm. A gold-plated conductive layer is attached to the inner wall of the through-hole 2. The structure of this embodiment can achieve simulation results of S21@-3dB 90.93 GHz and S11@-10dB 85.07 GHz, which are better than the simulation results of S21@-3dB 81.98 GHz and S11@-10dB 81.97 GHz of a cylindrical through-hole structure with the same radius.
