This dissertation aims to explore the design trade-offs and technological limitations of planar antenna elements and arrays for Ka-band space applications. The motivation for this research stems from the growing importance of wideband millimetre wave radio ...
We report transport measurements on a Si/SiGe quantum dot subject to microwave excitation via an on-chip antenna. The response shows signatures of photon-assisted tunneling and only a small effect on charge stability. We also explore the use of a d.c. curr ...
This article presents the prototype of an electronically steerable receive-only array antenna realised within the ESA-project NATALIA. This project is funded under contract number 18612/04/NL/US. The antenna is conceived for the reception of mobile satelli ...
An electronically switching-beam reflectarray antenna to be used in X-band has been designed, manufactured and tested, using PIN diodes as switching device. The antenna has 244 elements arranged in a circular aperture. With the aim of saving electronic dev ...

In this work a conceptual design of a conformal antenna array is presented for a millimeter-wave antenna system, optimized for low-cost mass production in PCB technology. The conformal array is constituted by four cube faces with two antennas realized on e ...
In this study, a dual frequency circularly polarized reconfigurable reflectarray (RA) cell with RF-MEMS switches is designed. RA combines the advantages of reflector-based and phased array antennas, providing a low-cost and high performance antenna array s ...

The dynamic control of the beamwidth of a partially reflective surface (PRS) antenna is reported for the first time. First, a design methodology is proposed by revisiting the PRS antenna theory from the perspective of its reconfigurable beamwidth operation ...

This work includes the fabrication of plasmonic nanostructures as well as the investigation of their optical properties in the near-field and in the farfield. As expressed in the title of this thesis the focus lies in the subwavelength confinement and enha ...
This paper presents implementations of very wideband antennas with reconfigurable band-rejection filtering within the band. The base antenna topology used is a dipole slot bow-tie whose maximal dimension at the lowest matched frequency is only 0.2λ0. The a ...
In this paper we propose the dynamic control of the beamwidth of partially reflective surface (PRS) antennas. Theoretical aspects are presented together with modeling issues. The potential and limitation of the concept are then evaluated. Finally, a detail ...
