Theory, analysis and design of high order reflective, absorptive filters We are excited to share our  insights on high order reflective absorptive filters. Here, we developed and generalized the theory of operation of arbitrary, nth -order reflective absorptive filters and demonstrated it by way of fabricated examples operating in the frequency range from 2.17 GHz - 2.27 GHz.   Bandstop filters, also known as notch filters, are essential for blocking specific frequency bands while allowing others to pass. This makes them invaluable in applications such as interference mitigation and signal conditioning. Our research focuses on lossy designs that incorporate reflection-mode principles, offering enhanced attenuation and broader stopbands compared to traditional filters. These filters are particularly useful in systems where space is limited but high-performance filtering is required. By combining lossy elements with reflection-mode circuitry, we’ve developed filters that provide both excellent power handling and low signal distortion. This makes them ideal for high-frequency applications, including radar systems and wireless communications.

Variable Temperature Broadband Microwave and Millimeter-Wave Characterization of Electrochromic (WO3/LiNbO3/NiO) Thin Films We are excited to share our findings on the impact of temperature on the dielectric tunability of electrochromic materials. Through meticulous experiments, we have shown that temperature variations significantly affect the tunability and performance of EC thin films. Our research demonstrated that at higher temperatures, the dielectric tunability of these materials improves, while their insertion losses are slightly increased. These findings are crucial for the development of electronic devices that operate in varying environmental conditions.

Electro-chromic structure with a high degree of dielectric tunability We have achieved a significant breakthrough in the field of dielectric tunability by developing a new inorganic electro-chromic (EC) structure. This advancement builds upon our previous research, where we demonstrated that standard EC structures, like WO3/LiNbO3/NiO, exhibit a degree of dielectric tunability at radio frequencies. However, our new structure, composed of a LiNbO3/WO3/LiNbO3 configuration, has shown to achieve up to three times higher dielectric tunability. This is a substantial improvement, reaching up to 65% tunability in the frequency range up to 20 GHz. This development is crucial for applications requiring flexible spectrum usage, particularly in next-generation communication technologies like 6G.

Practical Mitigation of Passive Intermodulation in Microstrip Circuits We have developed a novel practical approach to mitigate Passive Intermodulation (PIM) in microstrip circuits fabricated on commercial printed circuit board laminates. Our method focuses on reducing the magnitude of local Electro-Magnetic (EM) fields at the edges of microstrip transmission lines, which are identified as key contributors to PIM generation. By selectively coating these edges with a thin layer of high-permittivity dielectric (Ta2O5), we achieved more than a 10 dB reduction in PIM levels without compromising the linear characteristics of the circuit. This innovative approach provides a new, effective means for mitigating PIM, which is both practical and applicable to a wide range of commercial printed circuits.

Complex dielectric permittivity extraction based on multilayer thin film microstrip lines We have developed an advanced analytical method to extract complex relative dielectric permittivities of multi-layered dielectric substrates used in constructing Thin-Film (below skin depth thickness) Microstrip Line (TFML) structures. Electrically thin conductors, due to their finite conductivity, exhibit extraordinary conductor and radiation losses, with a dispersion relationship non-consistent with standard, thick conductors. In essence, thin conductors exhibit a slow-wave behavior, similar to high k dielectrics. In this aspect, separating the contributions of the thin conductors and dielectric substrates on wave propagation on TFML is a challenging task at best. Unlike traditional methods, our approach successfully separates the contributions of thin conductors and dielectric substrates on wave propagation. By transforming the problem into one involving a Parallel-Plate Wave-Guide (PPWG), we have achieved accuracy levels between 5% and 15%, depending on the TFML's width-to-height ratio. Through our innovative and methodical approach, we can now provide clearer insights into the wave propagation characteristics of TFMLs, paving the way for improved design and performance of telecommunications equipment. #AdvancedMaterials #TelecomInnovation #DielectricMaterials #ThinFilmTechnology #MicrostripDesign #WavePropagation #RFEngineering #Telecommunications #MaterialScience #CircuitDesign #ElectromagneticAnalysis
