Abstract
An upper frequency-range circuit () includes a load element () exhibiting a capacitive load impedance. A first matching network () includes at least one nano-scale Litz wire () inductor. The first matching network () exhibits an inductive reactance that nominally matches the capacitive load reactance. An electrical conductor for providing connections for radio-frequency signals includes a plurality of nano-scale conductors () that are arranged in the form of a Litz wire (). In one method of making a Litz wire (), a plurality of carbon nanotubes () is placed on a substrate (). The carbon nanotubes () are woven according to a predefined scheme so as to form a Litz wire (). An inductor may be formed by manipulating the Litz wire () to form a coil ().
