T-connections, methodology for designing T-connections, and compact modeling of T-connections. The T-connections include an electrically conductive T-junction comprising a body and first, second and third integral arms projecting from mutually perpendicular sides of the body, each arm of the three integral arms having a same first width abutting the body and a same length extending away from the body; an electrically conductive step-junction comprising a first section having the first width and an integral and abutting second section having a second width, the second width different from the first width, the first section smoothly abutting and integral with the first arm of the T-junction; and wherein top surfaces of the T-junction and the step-junction are coplanar.

A grounding plate and a transmission line are provided in a stack of dielectric material layers. First transmission line portions having a first width are alternately interlaced with second transmission line portions having a second width in the transmission line. The second width is greater than the first width so that inductance of the transmission line is increased relative to a transmission line having a fixed width. Metal fins may be provided between the grounding plate and the transmission line in the stack of the dielectric material layers. The metal fins may be grounded to the grounding plate to increase capacitance between the transmission line and the grounding plate. The increase in the inductance and the capacitance per unit length between the transmission line and the grounding plate is advantageously employed to provide a reduced phase velocity for electromagnetic signal transmitted through the transmission line. A design structure for the transmission line structure is provided.

A methodology is provided on developing metal fill as a library device and, in particular, a method of generating a model of the effects (e.g., capacitance) of metal fills in an integrated circuit and a design structure. The method is implemented on a computing device and includes generating a model for effects of metal fill in an integrated circuit. The metal fill model is generated prior to completion of a layout design for the integrated circuit.
