Complementary Periodic Structures for Miniaturization of Planar Antennas
In this paper various layered planar periodic structures which provide miniaturization of planar antennas are proposed and discussed. The proposed designs are based on two concepts, reactive impedance surfaces and complementary periodic structures. In the proposed structures, complementary periodic rings and slots are patterned on the intermediate boundaries of the dielectric layers. A patch an...
متن کاملPolar anchoring energy measurement of vertically aligned liquid-crystal cells
An electric-field method is developed for measuring the polar anchoring energy of vertically aligned nematic liquid-crystal cells. Both theoretical analyses and confirming experimental results are presented. Vertically aligned liquid-crystal cells with buffed polyimide alignment layers are used to investigate the measurement techniques. Based on the voltage-dependent transmittance of the liquid...
متن کاملGeneral Formulation to Investigate Scattering from Multilayer Lossy Inhomogeneous Metamaterial Planar Structures
This paper presents a general formulation to investigate the scattering from Multilayer Lossy Inhomogeneous Metamaterial Planar Structure (MLIMPS) with arbitrary number of layers and polarization. First, the dominating differential equation of transverse components of electromagnetic fields in each layers derived. Considering the general form of solution of the differential equations and the bo...
متن کاملUndulations in a confined lamellar system with surface anchoring.
We visualize undulations in layered systems using a cholesteric stripe phase with a macroscopic supramicron periodicity. The wave vector of stripe pattern is in the cell's plane. The undulation is induced by an in-plane magnetic field normal to the stripes. The observed displacement of layers is much larger than the value predicted by the Helfrich-Hurault classic theory. We propose a model of u...
متن کاملInterlaced cholesteric liquid crystal fingerprint textures via sequential UV-induced polymer- stabilization
Two types of cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) fingerprint structures, namely developable-modulation (DM) and growing-modulation (GM), can be contemporaneously prepared in polymer stabilized CLC (PSCLC) composites, to be mutually perpendicular in a repeatable and reversible voltage-switching process when the cell thickness to pitch length ratios (d/P) were appropriately chosen. PSCLC grating str...
