## Abstract In this paper, a new reflectarray cell consisting of a variableβlength slot etched in a microstrip patch is presented. The phase shift is achieved by controlling the length of the slot. Two different structures are proposed: the first one uses a single patch with a single slot while the

Abstract
An equivalent unit cell waveguide approach (WGA) is described to obtain reflection coefficient phase curves for designing a microstrip patch reflectarray supported by a ground plane with periodic apertures or slots. Based on the presented theory, a computer algorithm for determining the reflection coefficient of a plane wave normally incident on a multiβlayer structure of patches and apertures is developed. The validity of the developed algorithm is verified by comparing the obtained results with those published in the literature and the ones generated by Agilent High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS). A good agreement in all the presented examples is obtained, proving that the developed theory and computer algorithm can be an effective tool for designing multiβlayer microstrip reflectarrays with a periodically perforated ground plane.

Based on a waveguide analysis model for discontinuity in microstrip line circuits, the model-matching method and the generalized scattering matrix method were used. The effective dielectric constant and effective width of linear and raised cosine tapers were considered by approximate step analysis,
Formation of a Γ°2 Γ 1Γ local structure is found at submonolayer growth of Tl on the Si(1 1 1)-Γ°7 Γ 7Γ surface by means of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). At low coverages, the Γ°7 Γ 7Γ grid remains and the Γ°2 Γ 1Γ structure is formed inside of the half-unit cells of the Γ°7 Γ 7Γ. The Γ°2 Γ 1Γ coex
