Abstract
A desired performance characteristic of an electrical circuit employing a strip conductor is achieved by placing a fluid having a selected dielectric property in contact with at least a portion of the strip conductor, such that the dielectric property of the fluid effects one or more transmission characteristics of the conductor. In one embodiment, the circuit performance is measured and the dielectric property of the fluid adjusted, e.g., in an iterative process, until the desired performance characteristic of the circuit is achieved.
