Analysis on the Radiation Property of the Bounded Modes of Periodic Leaky-Wave Structure with Finite-Length Using a Hybrid Method.

ABSTRACT: In this paper the radiation property of the one-dimensional periodic leaky-wave structure is analysed using a new hybrid method, which involves the mode expansion method for expanding the periodic aperture field in terms of spatial harmonics and the method of effective radiation sections for transforming the expanded fields into far fields. Using this method, the radiation of each spatial harmonic can be achieved, and the contributions of the harmonics (especially the bounded modes) to the total radiation of the periodic leaky-wave structure can be calculated. The main findings in this paper demonstrate that the bounded modes in a finite length structure have obvious contribution to the far-field radiation, which was considered to be non-radiative and always ignored in the conventional researches.

Properties of Transmission and Leaky Modes in a Plasmonic Waveguide Constructed by Periodic Subwavelength Metallic Hollow Blocks.

Project description:Based on the concept of low-frequency spoof surface plasmon polaritons (spoof SPPs), a kind of leaky mode is proposed in a waveguide made of a subwavelength metal-block array with open slots. Numerical results reveal that a new transmission mode is found in the periodic subwavelength metal open blocks. This modal field is located inside the interior of a hollow block compared with that in a solid metal block array. The dispersion curve shows that such a new SPPs mode has a negative slope, crossing the light line, and then going into a zone of leaky mode at higher frequencies. The leaky mode has a wider frequency bandwidth, and this can lead to a radiation scanning angle of 53° together with high radiation efficiency. Based on the individual characteristics exhibited by a frequency-dependent radiation pattern for the present leaky mode, the waveguide structure can have potential applications such as frequency dividers and demultiplexers. Experimental verification of such a leaky mode at microwave has been performed, and the experimental results are found to be consistent with the theoretical analysis.

Analysis and Design of a Compact Leaky-Wave Antenna for Wide-Band Broadside Radiation.

Project description:A low-cost compact planar leaky-wave antenna (LWA) is proposed offering directive broadside radiation over a significantly wide bandwidth. The design is based on an annular metallic strip grating (MSG) configuration, placed on top of a dual-layer grounded dielectric substrate. This defines a new two-layer parallel-plate open waveguide, whose operational principles are accurately investigated. To assist in our antenna design, a method-of-moments dispersion analysis has been developed to characterize the relevant TM and TE modes of the perturbed guiding structure. By proper selection of the MSG for a fabricated prototype and its supporting dielectric layers as well as the practical TM antenna feed embedded in the bottom ground plane, far-field pencil-beam patterns are observed at broadside and over a wide frequency range, i.e., from 21.9?GHz to 23.9?GHz, defining a radiating percentage bandwidth of more than 8.5%. This can be explained by a dominantly excited TM mode, with low dispersion, employed to generate a two-sided far-field beam pattern which combines to produce a single beam at broadside over frequency. Some applications of this planar antenna include radar and satellite communications at microwave and millimeter-wave frequencies as well as future 5G communication devices and wireless power transmission systems.

Arbitrary aperture synthesis with nonlocal leaky-wave metasurface antennas.

Project description:The emergence of new technological needs in 5 G/6 G networking and broadband satellite internet access amplifies the demand for innovative wireless communication hardware, including high-performance low-profile transceivers. In this context, antennas based on metasurfaces - artificial surfaces engineered to manipulate electromagnetic waves at will - represent highly promising solutions. In this article, we introduce leaky-wave metasurface antennas operating at micro/millimeter-wave frequencies that are designed using the principles of quasi-bound states in the continuum, exploiting judiciously tailored spatial symmetries that enable fully customized radiation. Specifically, we unveil additional degrees of control over leaky-wave radiation by demonstrating pointwise control of the amplitude, phase and polarization state of the metasurface aperture fields by carefully breaking relevant symmetries with tailored perturbations. We design and experimentally demonstrate metasurface antenna prototypes showcasing a variety of functionalities advancing capabilities in wireless communications, including single-input multi-output and multi-input multi-output near-field focusing, as well as far-field beam shaping.

Material property estimation for tubes and arteries using ultrasound radiation force and analysis of propagating modes.

Project description:Arterial elasticity has been proposed as an independent predictor of cardiovascular diseases and mortality. Identification of the different propagating modes in thin shells can be used to characterize the elastic properties. Ultrasound radiation force was used to generate local mechanical waves in the wall of a urethane tube or an excised pig carotid artery. The waves were tracked using pulse-echo ultrasound. A modal analysis using two-dimensional discrete fast Fourier transform was performed on the time-space signal. This allowed the visualization of different modes of propagation and characterization of dispersion curves for both structures. The urethane tube/artery was mounted in a metallic frame, embedded in tissue-mimicking gelatin, cannulated, and pressurized over a range of 10-100 mmHg. The k-space and the dispersion curves of the urethane tube showed one mode of propagation, with no effect of transmural pressure. Fitting of a Lamb wave model estimated Young's modulus in the urethane tube around 560 kPa. Young's modulus of the artery ranged from 72 to 134 kPa at 10 and 100 mmHg, respectively. The changes observed in the artery dispersion curves suggest that this methodology of exciting mechanical waves and characterizing the modes of propagation has potential for studying arterial elasticity.

Harnessing Leaky Modes for Fluorescence Enhancement in Gold-Tipped Silicon Nanowires.

Project description:Hybrid structures containing plasmonic and photonic components can enhance light-matter interaction through both photonic and plasmonic modes and potentially their interactions. In this article, we systematically investigate the optical properties of nanoparticle-tipped silicon nanowires (NPTWs) and characterize their ability to enhance the fluorescence signal of two cyanine dyes (Cy3 and Cy5) selectively bound to the gold tip. Although both gold and silicon components contribute to the fluorescence signal enhancement, the experimentally observed strong morphology dependence of the fluorescence emission enhancement is demonstrated to depend on tunable leaky modes of the silicon nanowires. The ability to encode emission fluorescence enhancement in the structure of NPTWs is of high relevance for multiparametric biosensing and imaging.

Holographic leaky-wave metasurfaces for dual-sensor imaging.

Project description:Metasurfaces have huge potentials to develop new type imaging systems due to their abilities of controlling electromagnetic waves. Here, we propose a new method for dual-sensor imaging based on cross-like holographic leaky-wave metasurfaces which are composed of hybrid isotropic and anisotropic surface impedance textures. The holographic leaky-wave radiations are generated by special impedance modulations of surface waves excited by the sensor ports. For one independent sensor, the main leaky-wave radiation beam can be scanned by frequency in one-dimensional space, while the frequency scanning in the orthogonal spatial dimension is accomplished by the other sensor. Thus, for a probed object, the imaging plane can be illuminated adequately to obtain the two-dimensional backward scattered fields by the dual-sensor for reconstructing the object. The relativity of beams under different frequencies is very low due to the frequency-scanning beam performance rather than the random beam radiations operated by frequency, and the multi-illuminations with low relativity are very appropriate for multi-mode imaging method with high resolution and anti- noise. Good reconstruction results are given to validate the proposed imaging method.

Existence of edge modes in periodic microstrip transmission line.

Project description:The microstrip of modulated width is a realization of a one-dimensional photonic crystal operating in the microwave regime. Like any photonic crystal, the periodic microstrip is characterised by the presence of frequency bands and band gaps that enable and prohibit wave propagation, respectively. The frequency bands for microstrip of the symmetric unit cell can be distinguished by 0 or π Zak phase. The sum of these topological parameters for all bands below a given frequency gap determines the value of the surface impedance at the end of the microstrip. We demonstrate that edge modes are absent in a finite microstrip terminated at both ends in the centres of unit cells, but they can be induced by adding the defected cells. Edge modes present at both ends of the microstrip enable microwave tunneling with high transitivity in the frequency gap with or without a change in phase. This has been demonstrated experimentally and developed in detail using numerical simulations and model calculations. The investigated system, with a doublet of edge modes in the frequency gap, can be considered as a narrow passband filter of high selectivity and characterised by a significant group delay.

Spin-wave duplexer studied by finite-element micromagnetic simulation.

Project description:We conceptually designed a robust nano-scale waveguide structure suitable for potential use as a spin-wave duplexer that allows signal propagation only of selected narrow-band frequencies and duplex transmission in a three-port device comprising a receiver, a transmitter, and their common antenna. The waveguide structure combines three different arms and a circular ring, both made of nanostrip waveguides and a single magnetic material for reliably controllable propagations of spin waves. We attribute the observed duplex transmission of spin waves of narrow pass bands to scattering of spin waves by edge solitons placed at contact areas between the arms and the circular ring. This work proposes the first concept of nano-scale magnonic duplexers operating beyond GHz-frequency ranges.

A non-reflecting wave equation through directional wave-field suppression and its finite difference implementation.

Project description:The acoustic wave equation describes wave propagation directly from basic physical laws, even in heterogeneous acoustic media. When numerically simulating waves with the wave equation, contrasts in the medium parameters automatically generate all scattering effects. For some applications - such as propagation analysis or certain wave-equation based imaging techniques - it is desirable to suppress these reflections, as we are only interested in the transmitted wave-field. To achieve this, a modification to the constitutive relations is proposed, yielding an extra term that suppresses waves with reference to a preferred direction. The scale-factor [Formula: see text] of this extra term can either be interpreted as a penetration depth or as a typical decay time. This modified theory is implemented using a staggered-grid, time-domain finite difference scheme, where the acoustic Poynting-vector is used to estimate the local propagation direction of the wave-field. The method was successfully used to suppress reflections in media with bone tissue (medical ultrasound) and geophysical subsurface structures, while introducing only minor perturbations to the transmitted wave-field and a small increase in computation time.

Exploring the property space of periodic cellular structures based on crystal networks.

Project description:The properties of periodic cellular structures strongly depend on the regular spatial arrangement of their constituent base materials and can be controlled by changing the topology and geometry of the repeating unit cell. Recent advances in three-dimensional (3D) fabrication technologies more and more expand the limits of fabricable real-world architected materials and strengthen the need of novel microstructural topologies for applications across all length scales and fields in both fundamental science and engineering practice. Here, we systematically explore, interpret, and analyze publicly available crystallographic network topologies from a structural point of view and provide a ready-to-use unit cell catalog with more than 17,000 unique entries in total. We show that molecular crystal networks with atoms connected by chemical bonds can be interpreted as cellular structures with nodes connected by mechanical bars. By this, we identify new structures with extremal properties as well as known structures such as the octet-truss or the Kelvin cell and show how crystallographic symmetries are related to the mechanical properties of the structures. Our work provides inspiration for the discovery of novel cellular structures and paves the way for computational methods to explore and design microstructures with unprecedented properties, bridging the gap between microscopic crystal chemistry and macroscopic structural engineering.
