This paper presents the design of Electromagnetic Bandgap (EBG) structure using fractals geometry and its effect on antenna performance. The EBG structure has been designed on substrate єr = 4.3 and thickness h = 1.53 mm. The 1 iterative EBG structure offers the surface wave attenuation around 20 dB down from 2.94 GHz to 4.58 GHz corresponds to 43.62% bandwidth. The experimental results of 2 it...

In this paper we examine the effect of introducing an Electromagnetic metamaterial into a Travelling Wave structure to mediate inverse Cherenkov acceleration. Electromagnetic metamaterials are artificial materials that consist of macroscopic structures that yield an effective permittivity and permeability less than zero. The properties of metamaterials are highly frequency dependent and give ri...

Discuss the scattering of a plane electromagnetic wave of angular frequency ω that is incident on a perfectly conducting sphere of radius a, which is at rest, when the wavelength obeys λ a (ka 1). Calculate the electromagnetic fields and the Poynting vector everywhere, and interpret these fields in both the near and far zones. Consider incident electromagnetic waves of both linear and circular ...

A theory is presented for the dispersion relations of the nonlinear phonon-polaritons arising when phonons are coupled to the electromagnetic waves in multilayered structures of nonlinear materials. The calculations are applied to a multilayered structure consisting of a thin film surrounded by semi-infinite bounding media where each layer may have a frequency dependent dielectric function and ...

A proper antenna to couple to a microstrip Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector (MKID) is designed and simulated. A twin-slot microstrip-fed inline antenna is designed for frequency band of 600-720~GHz integrated with an elliptical lens and coupled to the MKID. A systematic design procedure for design of such antenna with microstrip inline feeding is presented. Whole structure of lens and twin...

A new four elements compact antenna array is presented and discussed to achieve enhanced phase resolution without sacrificing the array output power. This structure inspired by the Ormia Ochracea’s coupled ears. The analogy between this insect acute directional hearing capabilities and the electrically compact antenna array is used to enhance the array sensitivity to direction of arrival estima...

The field solution to the electromagnetic scattering of a plane wave by a uniaxial anisotropic sphere is obtained in terms of a spherical vector wave function expansion form. Using the source-free Maxwell's equations for uniaxial anisotropic media and making the Fourier transform of the field quantities, the electromagnetic fields in the spectral domain in uniaxial anisotropic media are assumed...

In this article, we describe the motivation and concept of a mode converter that transforms a plane electromagnetic wave into an inward moving dipole wave. The latter one is intended to bring a single two-level atom or ion from its ground state to its excited state by absorption of a single photon wave packet with 100% efficiency.

This paper analyzes the effect of large wave numbers on the wavelet method for integral equations arising in electromagnetic applications. It is shown that the compression of the stiffness matrix deteriorates with increasing wave number, a characteristic that has been reported before in the literature. Here, however, the exact dependence on the wave number is calculated analytically for the two...
