Antennas Made of Transparent Conductive Films

چکیده
Abstract— The radiation characteristics of two kinds of antennas made of transparent conductive films are investigated: a planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) and a monopole antenna. These antennas are designed to work at 2.4 GHz and their performances are compared with each other for several films with different sheet resistivities. Wire-grid models based on the moment method are applied for the numerical analysis. It is found that the film resistance influences the performance more strongly for the PIFA than for the monopole antenna due to the cavity-like behavior of the former.

We have carried out comparative studies on transparent conductive thin films made with two kinds of commercial carbon nanotubes: HiPCO and arc-discharge nanotubes. These films have been further exploited as hole-injection electrodes for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) on both rigid glass and flexible substrates. Our experiments reveal that films based on arc-discharge nanotubes are overwh...
