In this paper, a photonic crystal waveguide with point defects and lattice constant perturbations of +5%, -5% are being investigated. Firstly waveguide structures with constant and specific parameters are being studied and photonic band gap diagrams for TE/TM modes are depicted; then pulse propagation in the frequencies available in the band gap are shown. After that, effects of parameters like...

A dual-band artificial magnetic material and then a dual-band double-negative metamaterial structure based on symmetric spiral resonators are presented. An approximate analytical model is used for the initial design of the proposed structures. The electromagnetic parameters of the proposed metamaterial structure retrieved using an advanced parameter retrieval method based on the causality princ...

in this article, the effect of cells' radius on the behavior of wavelength switching optical filter andthe effect of the radius of the optical filters' key characteristics such as wavelength resonance onan optical filter based on photonic crystals, have been investigated. currently, the most commonapplied mechanism for designing optical filter based on photonic crystals is using twome...

a digital look-up table adaptive predistortion technique using a six-port receiver for power amplifier linearization is presented. the system is designed in ka-band for a dvb-s2 satellite link. we use a six-port receiver at the linearizationloop in place of classic heterodyne receivers. the six-port receiver is implemented by the use of passive microwavecircuits and detector diodes. this approa...

the purpose of this paper is the generalization of structure factor for rods by polygon section in two dimensional phononic crystals. if we use the plane wave expansion method (pwe) for the propagation of acoustic waves in 2d phononic crystals, structure factor will be an important quantity. in order to confirm the obtained relations, we have calculated the band structure for xy and z vibration...

background: the aim of the present study was application of haemoglobin absorption spectroscopy as a distinguishing tool for identification of two haemoglobin types-hba and hbs. material and methods: millimolar absorptivities of normal adult haemoglobin (hba) and sickle cell haemoglobin (hbs) were monitored at ph values of 7.2 and 5.0, within the ultra violet and visible spectral range (250-650...
