Photonics, the technology of photons (as electronics is the technology of electrons),
promises to be the new century's driving force in the advancement of, mainly but not only …

During the last decade, photonic crystals, also known as photonic microstructures or
photonic bandgap structures, have matured from an intellectual curiosity concerning …

Balanis' second edition of Advanced Engineering Electromagnetics–a global best-seller for
over 20 years–covers the advanced knowledge engineers involved in electromagnetic need …

A new type of metallic electromagnetic structure has been developed that is characterized
by having high surface impedance. Although it is made of continuous metal, and conducts …

In this paper we present the first results on emission in metamaterial. We show how the
specific properties of metallic composite material can modify the emission of an embedded …

A new type of metallic electromagnetic structure has been developed that is characterized

Nanophotonics is where photonics merges with nanoscience and nanotechnology, and
where spatial confinement considerably modifies light propagation and light-matter …

This paper presents a novel photonic bandgap (PBG) structure for microwave integrated
circuits. This new PBG structure is a two-dimensional square lattice with each element …

Since the advent of quantum mechanics and the clear demonstration of the existence
of'matter waves', physicists have never failed to take advantage of concepts and theoretical …

The microstrip patch antenna is a low-profile robust planar structure. A wide range of
radiation patterns can be achieved with this type of antenna and, due to the ease of …
