Copper-clad plastics (cuclad), for example PTFE, RT/duroid (having a variety of values, typically ε r=2.2 or 2.94) or Kapton (ε r=3.5), are now conventionally used when ease of manufacture, surface adhesion and price are paramount. Gibson's work has subsequently developed to include high gain Vivaldi antennas constructed on ceramic substrates other than alumina which have high dielectric constants and on substrates having low dielectric constant, for example, plastics. They were constructed by conventional microwave lithographic thin film techniques on substrates having a high dielectric constant, for example, alumina.

The original Vivaldi antennas were tapered notch antennas having notches which open in an exponential flare shape.
