Compact antenna element for high‐resolution SAR polarimetry applications [PDF]
Electronics Letters, 2013 For high‐resolution synthetic aperture radar polarimetry applications, a compact broadband dual‐polarised antenna element with high port isolation and low cross‐polarisation is investigated. The size of the element is 19 × 19 × 40 mm, which is much smaller than the traditional dual‐polarised horn.

Tailoring propagation-invariant topology of optical skyrmions with dielectric metasurfaces. [PDF]
NanophotonicsAbstract Optical Stokes skyrmions represent an emerging class of structured light characterized by intricate topological polarization textures in the beam's transverse plane. Traditional methods for generating Stokes skyrmions rely on bulky optical setups, driving significant interests in compact, single‐device solutions.
