Graphene/liquid crystal based terahertz phase shifters.
Due to its high electrical conductivity and excellent transmittance at terahertz frequencies, graphene is a promising candidate as transparent electrodes for terahertz devices. We demonstrate a liquid crystal based terahertz phase shifter with the graphene films as transparent electrodes. The maximum phase shift is 10.8 degree and the saturation voltage is 5 V with a 50 µm liquid crystal cell. ...
متن کاملThin-Film Phase Shifters for Low-Cost Phased Arrays
Drastic cost reduction of phased-arrays will require a shift in design strategy. The emphasis must be on removing expensive active components, not developing more highly integrated components or exotic packaging techniques. The phase shifter circuit—an essential active component—is the primary obstacle in decreasing the cost and number of active components in a phased-array. The problem is mult...
متن کاملMiniaturized Phase-Shifters for Ka-Band Phased Array Antennas
Realizing robust and stable two-way links between the mobile users and the satellite is an extremely challenging RF/Microwave engineering problem. Low cost and low pro le phased array is considered as the best solution for this problem. High performance low cost and miniaturized variable phase shifter is a key enabling technology for such complex smart phased array antenna system. This thesis a...
متن کاملTemperature Tunability of Dielectric/ Liquid Crystal / Dielectric Photonic Crystal Structures
Recently, photonic crystals doped with liquid crystal (LC) material havegained much research interest. In this article new ternary one-dimensional photoniccrystal introduced and studied. The liquid crystal layer of 5CB and 5PCH is sandwichedby two dielectric layers. For the first time, we use four structures SiO2/UCF35/CaF2,SiO2/5CB/CaF2, NFK51/UCF35/NPSK53 and NFK51/5CB/NPSK53. The effect ofte...
متن کاملImprovement the reflection coefficient of Waveguide-Fed Phased-Array Antenna utilizing Liquid Crystal
Abstract— This work investigates the improvement of the active reflection coefficient of waveguide-fed phased-array antenna using liquid crystal layers. The anisotropy properties of liquid crystal layer can be employed to eliminate blind scan angle and improve the wide angle impedance matching of the waveguide-fed phased array antennas. The authors have expressed the modal analysis of the waveg...
