Abstract
The design of a graphene based nano dipole antenna on stacked substrate is reported. A stack of substrate is formed from two different dielectric substrate materials, each of equal height. The performance of the designed antenna is investigated for three different substrate stacks such as Quartz-Silicon, GaAs-Silicon Nitride, and Polyimide-Glass. For each stack, total substrate height is varied from 80 μm to 120 μm, taking 20 μm as step size. The considered performance parameters of the designed antenna are return loss, bandwidth, radiation efficiency, gain, and directivity at a targeted resonance frequency of 1.02 THz. The simulation results confirm that Quartz-Silicon substrate pair with a height of 100 μm provides the best antenna performance. The enhanced outcomes are compared with other similar graphene antennas to ensure the effectiveness of the proposed design. The attractive properties and significant performances of the proposed graphene antenna make it a potential candidate to be used in wireless communication in nanosystems and THz sensing applications.
