AbstractWe numerically propose a dual-band absorber in the infrared region based on periodic elliptical graphene-black phosphorus (BP) pairs. The proposed absorber exhibits near-unity anisotropic absorption for both resonances due to the combination of graphene and BP. Each of the resonances is independently tunable via adjusting the geometric parameters. Besides, doping levels of graphene and BP can also tune resonant properties effectively. By analyzing the electric field distributions, surface plasmon resonances are observed in the graphene-BP ellipses, contributing to the strong and anisotropic plasmonic response. Moreover, the robustness for incident angles and polarization sensitivity are also illustrated.

In this paper, a compact triple band metamaterial antenna based on modified electric-field coupled (ELC) resonator is presented. The modification to the conventional ELC is achieved by the use of strip lines to enhance the capacitive coupling of the capacitive gaps and a stub printed at the back of the resonator. The unit cell’s macroscopic parameters were not affected by the structural modifications as the electric moment dominates the magnetic moments in the ELC response. By employing this structure, three resonance frequencies at 1.65 GHz, 3.5 GHz and 5.8 GHz are obtained. The overall size of the antenna is 40 mm × 45 mm (0.22λo × 0.24λo) with the unit cell size of 12 mm × 11 mm (0.066λo × 0.060λo) at 1.65 GHz. The peak gain of 2.10 dBi and radiation efficiency of 97% is obtained at 5.8 GHz. The proposed antenna has advantages of being compact, small and suitable for WiMAX (3.5 GHz) and WLAN (5.8 GHz) applications. The simulated and measured return losses and the radiation patterns are presented and compared.

In this paper, a very high sensitivity microwave-based planar microfluidic sensor is presented. Sensitivity enhancement is achieved and described theoretically and experimentally by eliminating any extra parasitic capacitance not contributing to the sensing mechanism. The sensor consists of a microstrip transmission line loaded with a series connected shunt LC resonator. A microfluidic channel is attached to the area of the highest electric field concentration. The electric field distribution and, therefore, the resonance characteristics are modified by applying microfluidic dielectric samples to the sensing area. The sensor performance and working principle are described through a circuit model analysis. A device prototype is fabricated, and experimental measurements using water/ethanol and water/methanol solutions are presented for validation of the sensing mathematical model.
