The characteristics of a single MSRR unit cell are investigated; and a volumetric miniaturized AMC block is then designed. In order to validate the approach used to simulate an infinite periodic structure, a block of nine aligned layers is then simulated. The next step is to add a printed dipole antenna as an application to validate the performance of the AMC block. The results are very excellent and promising if compared with the simple dipole antenna as an enhancement of 5 dB is achieved considering the directivity. The front to back ratio is found to be about 20 dB.","PeriodicalId":361750,"journal":{"name":"2013 13th Mediterranean Microwave Symposium (MMS)","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116072410","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}

This antenna has a sufficient bandwidth for the operating requirements of the 2.45-GHz industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band and both antennas offered higher path gain compared to a fundamental-mode microstrip patch antenna.

This question can be addressed using different strategies including encapsulating materials, device design and buffer layers, with the latter being addressed in this paper. The shelf life of un-encapsulated small-molecule organic solar cells, (ITO/PEDOT-PSS/CuPC/C60/buffer layer/Al), have been studied under 100 mW/cm2 continuous illumination in open air with different thin buffer layers of bathocuproine (BCP), tris-8-hydroxy-quiolinato-aluminum (Alq3), 1,3,5-tris(2-N-phenylbenzimidazolyl) benzene (TPBI) and lithium fluoride (LiF). Changes in the main photovoltaic parameters upon ageing (power conversion efficiency, fill factor, open circuit voltage, short circuit current density, series and shunt resistances) have been monitored. In all cases two ageing mechanisms with two different time constants have been demonstrated and attributed to a rapid degradation of cathode contact followed by contamination of the active layer.","PeriodicalId":361750,"journal":{"name":"2013 13th Mediterranean Microwave Symposium (MMS)","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124415400","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}

Measurement and simulation characterization tools of semiconductor devices become crucial in order to optimize their characteristics and circuit performances. In this paper, firstly we propose a low noise, wideband LF noise setup which allows to measure noise sources up to 10 MHz. Secondly, by using TCAD simulation tools of semiconductor devices, the origin of LF noise sources in InGaP/GaAs HBT is investigated. Many comparisons between numerical physics-based device noise simulation and LF noise measurement of base TLM, varactor base-collector junction and base-emitter heterojunction allow us to locate precisely the origin of LF noise of InGaP/GaAs HBT.","PeriodicalId":361750,"journal":{"name":"2013 13th Mediterranean Microwave Symposium (MMS)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132837229","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}
