An Air Copl8Jlar, Wafer Probe Edward M. Godshalk, Jeremy Burr, and Jeff Williams Cascade Microtech Inc. Beaverton, Oregon Abstract: A new wafer probe is presented based on using coplanar waveguide in air. The transmission line is called air coplanar waveguide, and the probe an air coplanar probe (ACP). The probe consists of a coaxial connector, a short piece of coaxial cable and finally the air c
