A polarized maser is assumed to operate in an anisotropic medium with natural modes polarized differently to the maser. It is shown that when the spatial growth rate and the generalized Faraday rotation rate are comparable, the polarization of the growing radiation is different from those of the maser and medium. In particular, for a lineary polarized maser operating in a medium with linearly p...

Novel chiral Er complexes based on both enantiomers of extended iPrPyBox (2,6-Bis[4-isopropyl-4,5-dihydrooxazol-2-yl)]pyridine) show strong near-infrared circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) within the 1400 to 1600 nm spectral region under 450 irradiation. CPL activity in this region, despite being particularly rare, would open way potential applications domain, e.g., fiber-optic telecommuni...

A new shaped circularly polarized dielectric resonator antenna (CP DRA) is studied with branch-line coupler and log-periodic balun for the GPS application. Since the coupler and balun are located under the DRA, it does not increase the footprint of the antenna, as a result the system is very compact. Two configurations are considered in this paper. In the first configuration, an external 50Ω lo...

This paper presents the design, simulation, and measurement of two low-cost broadband circularly polarized (CP) printed antennas: a single element and an array at C band. The proposed single element antenna is excited by an L-shaped strip with a tapered end, located along the circular-slot diagonal line in the back plane. From the array experimental results, the 3 dB axial ratio bandwidth can r...
