Enabling Wide Bandwidth in Substrate-Integrated Waveguide Slot Antennas by Using Low-Index Metamaterials

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Amir Jafargholi, Jalaledin Tayebpour

This paper presents a solution to overcome the inherently limited bandwidth of substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) slot antennas. It is analytically shown that by decreasing the permittivity of a dielectric loaded slot antenna, the resulting bandwidth inc ...

Controlled filamentation instability as a scalable fabrication approach to flexible metamaterials

Fabien Sorin, Pierre-Luc Eloi Piveteau, William Nicolas Duncan Esposito, Louis Marie Philippe Martin-Monier

Long and flexible arrays of nanowires find impactful applications in sensing, photonics, and energy harvesting. Conventional manufacturing relies largely on lithographic methods limited in wafer size, rigidity, and machine write time. Here, we report a sca ...

Non-reciprocal manipulation of subwavelength fields in locally-resonant metamaterial crystals

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Farzad Zangeneh Nejad, Nadège Sihame Kaïna

Locally-resonant metamaterial crystals are artificial materials built from small spatially-local resonant inclusions arranged periodically at subwavelength scale. Unlike conventional continuous metamaterials, for which spatial dispersion originates mostly ...

Active Acoustic Resonators and their Applications to Loss-Immune, Reconfigurable, or Dynamic Metamaterials

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury

Locally-resonant sonic metamaterials refer to synthetic acoustic matter composed of artificial acoustic “atoms”, generally passive, and of subwavelength sizes, that are capable of resonantly interacting with an external acoustic wave, and manipulate it in ...
