A new analytical approach to optimize the thicknesses of a two-layer absorbing structure constituted by graphene-based composite and polymer dielectric spacer backed metallic layer acting as perfect electric conductor (PEC) is proposed. The lossy sheet made an epoxy-based vinyl ester resin filled with graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) characterized known frequency spectra complex permittivity. opti...

This paper presents an analysis with the aim of characterizing the electromagnetic properties of an arbitrary linear, bianisotropic material inside a metallic waveguide. The result is that if the number of propagating modes is the same inside and outside the material under test, it is possible to determine the propagation constants of the modes inside the material by using scattering data from ...

Resonant absorbers based on nanostructured materials are promising for variety of applications including optical filters, thermophotovoltaics, thermal emitters, and hot-electron collection. One of the significant challenges for such micro/nanoscale featured medium or surface, however, is costly lithographic processes for structural patterning which restricted from industrial production of compl...

The radar cross-section patterns of lossy dihedral corner reflectors are calculated using a uniform geometrical theory of diffraction for impedance surfaces. All terms of up to third order reflections and diffractions are considered for patterns in the principal plane. The surface waves are included whenever they exist for reactive surface impedances. The dihedral corner reflectors examined hav...

In this paper we propose and analyse a hp-adaptive discontinuous finite element method for computing electromagnetic modes of propagation supported by waveguide structures comprised of a thin lossy metal film of finite width embedded in an infinite homogeneous dielectric. We propose a goal-oriented or dual weighted residual error estimator based on the solution of a dual problem that we use to ...

Although, the possibility of electronic storage and transmission has been bene cial for extending the intellectual communication, the easiness of copying and transmitting the data in the internet has increased the piracy and illegal use of owned artworks. As a result, digital data watermarking, has been under thorough investigation in recent years. The main aim of data hiding is to add some tra...

The refraction phenomenon at the interface of an ordinary material and a lossy metamaterial has been investigated. For oblique incidence on the lossy metamaterial, the planes of constant amplitude of the refracted wave are parallel to the interface and the plane of constant phases make a real angle with the interface (real refraction angle). The real refraction angle and hence, the real refract...

The present is a low-profile, wide-angle scanning, ultrawideband, tightly coupled dipole array that lacks impedance matching layer and lossy materials. Impedance will deteriorate at the lower end of operating bandwidth due to influence ground plane. A well-designed perforated balun used achieve better matching. Moreover, parasitic metallic strips are attached dipole's side add additional reacti...

A metallic slot waveguide, with a dielectric strip embedded within, is investigated for the purpose of enhancing the optics-to-THz conversion efficiency using the difference-frequency generation (DFG) process. To describe the frequency conversion process in such lossy waveguides, a fully-vectorial coupled-mode theory is developed. Using the coupled-mode theory, we outline the basic theoretical ...

In this report, we propose lossless/lossy coding gain as a new objective criterion to theoretically evaluate lossless and lossy coding performance of the lossless/lossy wavelet (LLW). The proposed lossless/lossy coding gain consists of three parameters: “lossless coding gain”, “quantization-lossy coding gain” and “rounding errors”. Performances of 15 kinds of the LLW are measured with two-dimen...
