Low RCS and Broadband ME Dipole Antenna Loading Artificial Magnetic Conductor Structures [PDF]

Radioengineering, 2017
A design for low radar cross section (RCS) and broadband magnetic-electric (ME) dipole antenna is proposed. Minkowski-like fractal metal patches printed on the substrate form the electric dipoles, four metallic vias connected to the radiation patches and

ARTIFICIAL MAGNETIC CONDUCTORS ON WIDEBAND PATCH ANTENNA

Progress In Electromagnetics Research Letters, 2013
The use of Artiflcial Magnetic Conductor (AMC) as a re∞ector in a printed antenna is known to improve the antenna's radiation characteristics. This work investigates the implementation of AMC as a re∞ector on a wideband planar monopole antenna. The investigation is conflned to a basic square unit cell of AMC with four possible variations.

Electrocapillary Modulated Interfacial Tension Amplifies Liquid Metal Transduction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presented an electrocapillary‐enhanced magnetohydrodynamic pumping strategy that harnesses the Lorentz force and interfacial tension modulation of liquid metal droplets to achieve amplified fluidic power. The system enabled low‐voltage, self‐oscillating fluidic transduction with enhanced pressure and flow generation, supporting compact ...

Negative inductance circuits for metamaterial bandwidth enhancement

EPJ Applied Metamaterials, 2017
Passive metamaterials have yet to be translated into applications on a large scale due in large part to their limited bandwidth. To overcome this limitation many authors have suggested coupling metamaterials to non-Foster circuits.

Polarization‐Dependent Synaptic‐Like Electro‐Optical Response in Ferroelectric Nematic Liquid Crystals

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals (FNLCs) offer fast, tunable polarization and low‐voltage operation but suffer from poor polarization retention at zero field. Semiconductor‐modified FNLCs enhance polarization retention and exhibit short‐ and long‐term electro‐optical responses, while also supporting spike‐type signal integrations.
