Abstract: An ultra-wideband electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structure includes multiple EBG units in an array. Each EBG unit includes a power plane, a dielectric substrate and a ground plane from top to bottom. The power plane includes a patch, a coupled complementary split ring resonator (C-CSRR) and a plurality of semi-improved Z-bridge structures. Each edge of the patch is provided with a semi-improved Z-bridge structure. The C-CSRR is provided within a ring formed by the semi-improved Z-bridge structures. The Z-bridge structure includes a first horizontal branch, a first vertical branch, a second horizontal branch and a second vertical branch connected in sequence. The second vertical branch is connected to the patch. First horizontal branches of adjacent EBG units are connected to each other. A circuit board including the aforementioned EBG structure is also provided.
