A Stretchable Liquid Metal Coaxial Phase Shifter
نویسندگان
چکیده
Presented is a stretchable liquid metal coaxial phase shifter constructed of center conductor, shield in the shape hollow cylinder, and rubber-based polymer (Ecoflex™00-30) which encases insulates metal. The design builds on enhances previous research consisting same but with five hand-woven strands. By modifying to consist cylinder rather than woven strands, TEM breakdown at high frequencies decreased, improves its transmission reflection coefficients higher frequencies. Prototype results show coefficient (S21) better -1.8 dB (S11) -10 40 mm stretch (62%) frequency band 1 GHz 4 GHz.

Stretchable Loudspeaker using Liquid Metal Microchannel
Considering the various applications of wearable and bio-implantable devices, it is desirable to realize stretchable acoustic devices for body-attached applications such as sensing biological signals, hearing aids, and notification of information via sound. In this study, we demonstrate the facile fabrication of a Stretchable Acoustic Device (SAD) using liquid metal coil of Galinstan where the ...
متن کاملStretchable liquid-crystal blue-phase gels.
Liquid-crystalline polymers are materials of considerable scientific interest and technological value. An important subset of these materials exhibit rubber-like elasticity, combining the optical properties of liquid crystals with the mechanical properties of rubber. Moreover, they exhibit behaviour not seen in either type of material independently, and many of their properties depend crucially...
متن کاملStretchable Metamaterial Absorber Using Liquid Metal-Filled Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)
A stretchable metamaterial absorber is proposed in this study. The stretchability was achieved by liquid metal and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). To inject liquid metal, microfluidic channels were fabricated using PDMS powers and microfluidic-channel frames, which were built using a three-dimensional printer. A top conductive pattern and ground plane were designed after considering the easy injec...
متن کاملIntrinsically Stretchable Biphasic (Solid-Liquid) Thin Metal Films.
Stretchable biphasic conductors are formed by physical vapor deposition of gallium onto an alloying metal film. The properties of the photolithography-compatible thin metal films are highlighted by low sheet resistance (0.5 Ω sq(-1) ) and large stretchability (400%). This novel approach to deposit and pattern liquid metals enables extremely robust, multilayer and soft circuits, sensors, and act...
متن کاملA New Circular Polarization Metamaterial Ferrite Phase Shifter
In this paper, a new X band Metamaterial (MTM) based ferrite phase shifter is presented. The phase shifter is excited by circular polarized wave base on combination of TE10 and TE01 modes in a square waveguide. In order to synthesize negative refractive index metamaterial (NIM), negative permeability of ferrite slabs in extraordinary mode is mixed with the negative permitivity of printed period...
