Abstract

A new patch antenna system, which has both a photonic bandgap (PBG) substrate and a PBG cover, is proposed in the present paper. The impedance, radiation pattern, and directivity of such an antenna are studied by the finite‐different time‐domain method. The results show that the directivity of the PBG antenna is significantly improved. The dependence of the directivity on the frequency and other parameters is also studied. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 30: 41–44, 2001.

In this letter, a patch antenna on a photonic bandgap substrate is presented. A reduction in the le¨el of surface-wa¨e mode excitation has been obtained. This leads to impro¨ed efficiency, gain, and far-field radiation pattern. Furthermore, impro¨ements in the input return loss ha¨e been reported.

A highly birefringent hollow-core photonic bandgap fiber based on Topas cyclic olefin copolymer is designed. The rhombic hollow-core with rounded corners is formed by omitting four central air holes of the cladding structure. The guided modes, birefringence and confinement loss of the fiber are inve

A slab of ''woodpile'' photonic-bandgap PBG material is examined as a planar, all-dielectric reflector for a dipolermonopole antenna. Gain, field patterns, and input impedance are obtained using full electromagnetic calculations based on the finite-difference time-( ) domain FDTD method and measurem
