The operation of the radar technology is based on the mechanical movement of the antenna. To overcome the flaw of the mechanical movement an electronically tunable reflectarray antenna based on non-linear properties of Liquid Crystal materials has been introduced. This paper presents a detailed analysis of the tunability performance of different X-band reflectarray resonant elements printed on 1 mm thick grounded Liquid Crystal materials. Dynamic phase range and frequency tunabilty of rectangular, dipole and ring elements have been investigated by using CST computer model. Non-linear material properties have been used to develop an algorithm based on Method of Moment, for dynamic phase distribution of three resonant elements. It has been shown that the ring element offers a maximum dynamic phase range of 248° as compared to dipole and rectangular elements which offer 238° and 160° respectively. Moreover a maximum frequency tunabilty of 796 MHz, 784 MHz and 716 MHz can be achieved for rectangular, dipole and ring elements respectively with a dielectric anisotropy of 0.45. Waveguide simulator measurements of passive reflectarray unit cells demonstrate that rectangular element is observed to offer a minimum reflection loss of 1.6 dB as compared to dipole and ring elements which offer 3.3 dB and 3.6 dB respectively.

Potential Development

An optical and dielectric biosensor based on a liquid crystal (LC)–photopolymer composite was established in this study for the detection and quantitation of bovine serum albumin (BSA). When the nematic LC E7 was doped with 4-wt.% NOA65, a photo-curable prepolymer, and photopolymerized by UV irradiation at 20 mW/cm2 for 300 s, the limit of detection determined by image analysis of the LC optical texture and dielectric spectroscopic measurements was 3400 and 88 pg/mL for BSA, respectively, which were lower than those detected with E7 alone (10 μg/mL BSA). The photopolymerized NOA65, but not the prepolymer prior to UV exposure, contributed to the enhanced optical signal, and UV irradiation of pristine E7 in the absence of NOA65 had no effect on the optical texture. The effective tilt angle θ, calculated from the real-part dielectric constant ε’, decreased with increasing BSA concentration, providing strong evidence for the correlation of photopolymerized NOA65 to the intensified disruption in the vertically oriented LC molecules to enhance the optical and dielectric signals of BSA. The optical and dielectric anisotropy of LCs and the photo-curable dopant facilitate novel quantitative and signal amplification approaches to potential development of LC-based biosensors.
