In recent years, an increasing number of pioneering studies have been carried out in the field of acoustic metamaterials, following the path of electromagnetic metamaterials. These artificial engineered materials are designed in such a way so as to achieve ...
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 ...
Metamaterials today are often realized as complex structured metasurfaces. Their functionality is based on combination of plasmonic resonances in metallic nanostructures and interferences. Novel concepts of bottom up fabrication using liquid crystal self-o ...
A new vertically polarized omnidirectional antenna, inspired by an old design, has been studied, optimized, realized and measured. With a radiation pattern similar to the classical monopole on a ground plane, the proposed antenna concept provides a much la ...
Fabry-Perot (FP) cavities having at least one partially reflective surface are widely used as compact and efficient high-directivity radiators. However, they inherently suffer from very narrow directivity bandwidths around the FP resonance. Here it is show ...
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 ...
We develop concepts for engineering multi-resonant infrared plasmonic antennas. We utilize these antennas in conjunction with a perfect absorber geometry to simultaneously enhance mid-infrared vibrational resonances separated by 3 mu m in in monolayer poly ...
Beam-space multiplexing has been demonstrated as a promising approach for transmitting multiple signals while using a single RF chain. This paper presents a novel beam-space antenna design that is very compact and integrated into a hypothetical portable pl ...
A dielectric sandwich loading technique is proposed to enhance impedance matching bandwidth of an antenna when it is placed close to the human body. This technique mitigates the body influence by confining the reactive fields in the dielectric loads. This ...
This paper presents a coplanar-fed antenna designed to operate close to the human body in the 2.45 GHz Industrial Scientific Medical (ISM) band. The antenna matching is studied in free space and in body proximity. Two models of the human arm, with flat and ...
