The analysis is performed both according to a finite-difference micromagnetic approach, the dynamical matrix method, and by means of analytical calculations. The external magnetic field applied along the y-axis aligns the static magnetization along the same direction which induces the formation of “surface magnetic charges” on the border of the holes. The passage from a discontinuous to a continuous effective “surface magnetic charges” distribution in the effective stripe limit has a strong influence on the dynamics of the resonant mode of the system. Due to the large demagnetizing field it is shown via analytical calculations that the resonant mode of the effective one-dimensional stripe cannot exist above a given aspect ratio. The dynamical properties of the resonant mode dramatically change passing from a two-dimensional to a one-dimensional magnonic metamaterial.","PeriodicalId":151955,"journal":{"name":"2014 8th International Congress on Advanced Electromagnetic Materials in Microwaves and Optics","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122439419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, it is assumed that, under certain circumstances, the particle can be modelled by electric and magnetic dipoles placed on its shape center. Then, the chiral particles are positioned at a 2D array illuminated by plane waves, and dipole moments are analytically calculated as a function of polarizabilities and incident waves. The scattered fields from the same surface are, also, analytically computed as a function of dipole moments, while the resulting non-linear system is numerically solved for the desired polarizabilities. The proposed algorithm is verified by means of a chiral helix particle at microwave frequencies.","PeriodicalId":151955,"journal":{"name":"2014 8th International Congress on Advanced Electromagnetic Materials in Microwaves and Optics","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127800257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two configurations are investigated as working examples of the proposed tuning technique. Initially, a tunable high impedance meta-surface is being studied, consisting of a square loop element printed on a dielectric substrate and placed over a ground plane creating an air cavity. Subsequently, the transmission and reflection properties of double layer meta-surfaces consisting of two square aperture arrays printed on dielectric substrates and separated by an air cavity are presented. Tuning of the reflection phase of the high impedance meta-surface and the bandpass filter response of the double layer meta-surface is achieved by means of piezoelectric actuators positioned around the surfaces. The proposed actuators dynamically change the thickness of the air cavities in both configurations, due to their property of expanding vertically under DC biasing, which results in tuning the reflection and transmission characteristics of the structures.","PeriodicalId":151955,"journal":{"name":"2014 8th International Congress on Advanced Electromagnetic Materials in Microwaves and Optics","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128438639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By mapping the corresponding surface impedance to the size of dielectric hole, we can shape the quasi-periodic distribution of spoof SPP structure. Combining with the holographic antenna technology and radiation theory of leaky-wave, we design a planar spiral antenna, which can generate the radiations of two reversely circular polarizations in the two sides of planar antenna. The design can be extended to millimeter-wave or THz regimes by scaling down the structure.","PeriodicalId":151955,"journal":{"name":"2014 8th International Congress on Advanced Electromagnetic Materials in Microwaves and Optics","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116686621","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
