Non-Mechanical Beam Steering with Polarization Gratings: A Review
Polarization gratings (PGs) enable a novel architecture for dynamic non-mechanical steering of light over large angles and with large clear apertures. This beam steering approach has many applications in active sensing and optical communications. In this

We demonstrate two-dimensional beam steering through wavelength control using a one-dimensional optical phased array (OPA) in which a path difference is built up in each channel to allocate a phase delay sequentially.

Microswitch beam-steering grid [PDF]
We propose new microswitch beam-steering grids to operate at 90 GHz and 240 GHz. The microswitch beam-steering grid has potential advantages over mechanical-scanning devices or active beam-steering reflectors based on diode grids such as lower loss and simple control circuits.

Beam Steering with Segmented Annular Arrays [PDF]
Two-dimensional (2-D) arrays of squared matrix have maximum periodicity in their main directions; consequently, they require half wavelength (lambda/2), interelement spacing to avoid grating lobes. This condition gives rise to well-known problems derived from the huge number of array elements and from their small size.

Liquid Crystal Beam Steering Devices: Principles, Recent Advances, and Future Developments
Continuous, wide field-of-view, high-efficiency, and fast-response beam steering devices are desirable in a plethora of applications. Liquid crystals (LCs)—soft, bi-refringent, and self-assembled materials which respond to various external stimuli

Beam steering of a single nanoantenna
Nanoantennas play an important role as mediators to efficiently convert free-space light into localized optical energy and vice versa. However, effective control of the beam direction of a single nanoantenna remains a great challenge. In this paper, we propose an approach to steer the beam direction of a single nanoantenna by adjusting two antenna ...

The Design of a Sliding Rectangular Waveguide Array Antenna for Beam Steering [PDF]
In this paper, we designed a sliding waveguide array antenna that can be beam-steered via mechanical manipulation. This reduces the vulnerability of electronic beam-steering radars mounted on ships or aircraft to electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attacks.
