Abstract High-speed transmission lines are commonly routed as differential lines to control sensitivity to noise on the reference planes at higher speeds. The preferred method of characterization of differential lines is in terms of mixed-mode scattering parameters, as they provide insight into the behavior of differential and common signals, as well as the mode conversion among them. These mixed-mode scattering parameters can be mathematically obtained from single-ended parameters, which can for example be measured with a 4-port vector network analyzer. There has been recent concerns about the so-obtained mixed-mode scattering parameters, especially for tightly-coupled lines, resulting in extended or modified definitions of mixed-mode scattering parameters. This can be a point of confusion in interpreting the behavior of differential lines. In this paper we introduce the mixed-port hybrid parameters, which do not suffer from any such ambiguous definitions, as they are based on intuitive differential and common-port excitations of the network. As such, mixed-port hybrid parameters can be used to analyze the mixed-mode performance of any arbitrary 4-port network, certainly including coupled or asymmetrical lines, without any ambiguity.

AbstractThe descriptive scattering parameters, haze and angular distribution functions of textured ZnO:Al transparent conductive oxides with different surface roughness are measured. An approach to determine the scattering parameters of all internal interfaces in p-i-n a-Si:H solar cells deposited on the glass/ZnO:Al substrates is presented. Using the determined scattering parameters as the input parameters of the optical model, a good agreement between the measured and simulated quantum efficiencies of the p-i-n a-Si:H solar cells with different interface roughness is achieved.
