A slot array placed on the face of a cavity realized in substrate-integrated waveguide technology is presented. Guidelines to design similar antennas are provided. The design has been done with the help of commercial software. The result is a low-cost, dir ...
Analogues of many radio frequency (RF) antenna designs such as the half-wave dipole and Yagi-Uda have been successfully adapted to the optical frequency regime, opening the door for important advances in biosensing, photodetection, and emitter control. Exa ...
The electric field enhancement associated with detailed structure within novel optical antenna nanostructures is modeled using the surface integral equation technique in the context of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The antennae comprise random ...
This paper reports on the design and fabrication of a fully integrated antenna beam steering concept for wireless sensor nodes. The conformal array circumcises four cube faces with a silicon core mounted on each face. Every silicon core represents a 2 by 1 ...
In this paper, wearable antennas in close proximity of a human body are considered, focusing on portions of the frequency range between 200 MHz and 2700 MHz. In specific, non-patch type antennas with multi-band operation, light weight, easy integration wit ...
