FDTD study of subwavelength imaging by a photonic crystal slab

The problem of subwavelength imaging via a photonic crystal slab lens made of two-dimensional (2D) square arrays of parallel dielectric cylinders in air is studied and discussed theoretically. The finite-difference time-domain method is employed to investigate the unique features of imaging by such lens. We confirm earlier findings that a photonic crystal slab lens can provide the imaging of a point source. By analysing the transmission properties of the proposed structure, we demonstrate that inside the all-angle negative refraction, there are some favourable directions for waves to travel. We show that the surface termination of the photonic crystal is a key parameter to obtain a good quality image. The super-resolution of two sources separated by a distance less than the wavelength is also considered. It is shown that the achievable resolution is limited by the slab length.     

Perturbation Analysis of Dielectric Grating Antenna with LHM Substrate

A dielectric grating leaky wave antenna with a substrate consisted of left handed material (LHM) is presented in this paper, the case where the n = −1 space harmonic of TM mode radiating into the space is carefully investigated through the improved perturbation analysis, which tremendously simplifies the analysis procedure with good calculation accuracy and brings considerable physical insight into the overall behavior of the dielectric grating antenna. It has been found that the new leaky wave antenna is of larger leakage constant than that of the traditional antenna with substrate of the right handed material (RHM). As a result the dimension of the antenna could be largely reduced, which is of practical significance for some applications. Extensive numerical results of the radiation characteristics are given to establish useful guidelines for the design of the new grating antenna.     

On the appropriateness of “molecules-in-molecule” models in describing of π-electronic states of composed aromatic systems

Configuration analysis (CA) allows the straightforward derivation of electronic state correlation diagrams and the critical examination of the appropriateness of simple molecules-in-molecule approaches. The formerly thoroughly investigated fluoranthene is taken as an example. The advantage of composite-molecule approach is demonstrated by the use of energy spectra of fluoranthene analogues.     

Investigation of gain effect of multi-band patch antenna based on composite rectangular SRRs

The paper focus on describing the important influence and physical law of the Split_Resonant_Rings (SRRs) based on Left Handed Material (LHM) on patch antennas. The FDTD method, together with FEM method is used to study the characteristics of patch antenna based on composite rectangular SRRs. A novel composite rectangular SRR system is formed by assembling the conventional patch antenna and SRRs, it is found that electromagnetic wave resonance occurs at several bands: GSM (880–960 MHz), DCS (1710–1881 MHz), and PCS (1850–1990 MHz). The electromagnetic wave's “tunnel effect” and evanescent waves’ enhancing effect are formed, which can improve the localization extent of electromagnetic wave's energy apparently, such effects can improve the antenna's radiation gain and its matching condition. The phenomenon indicates that such composite rectangular patch antennas are promising in wireless communications such as mobile phone, satellite communication and aviation.     

Transmission properties of asymmetric slab waveguides with left-handed materials

A new dielectric slab waveguide with a left-handed material (LHM) cover and substrate is proposed. The dispersion relations and normalized effective thickness of the asymmetric LHM slab waveguide are investigated, in view of the normalized parameters. A number of unusual properties are found, for example, the fundamental and first-order modes do not exist and higher-order modes have double degeneracy. The propagation modes are absent at the low normalized frequency, and the cutoff frequencies of some LHM slab waveguide modes decrease with increase in the asymmetry measure. Unlike traditional slab waveguides, the V –H curves of the LHM slab waveguides are in one-to-one correspondence. Both TE and TM modes are discussed; in addition, the dispersion relations and normalized effective thicknesses of the TM modes are discussed in detail, when the difference in refractive indices of the film and the substrate is small. The results show that the region of mode coexistence taking place near the cutoff frequency becomes narrower with increase in the difference in refractive indices of the film and the substrate. The influence of this difference on the normalized effective thickness curves is different, and becomes smaller and smaller with increase in the value of the asymmetry measure, if different values of the refractive indices are employed.     

Complete Polarization Conversion Characteristics of Dielectric Grating Composed of Left-Handed Materials

The TE/TM polarization conversion characteristics of dielectric grating composed of left-handed materials for the case of plane wave oblique incidence are carefully investigated by a method which combines the multimode network theory with the rigorous mode matching method. It is indicated that complete polarization conversion between TE and TM modes can be realized using left-handed gratings. This can hardly achieve in the conventional right-handed gratings. Comparisons of polarization conversion properties between right-handed gratings and left-handed gratings are given with physical explanations. This unique merit of left-handed periodic structure is of important significance for accurate design of new millimeter wave TE/TM polarization converters.
