摘要
提出一种新型的频率可重构的微带贴片天线,以液态金属合金和高度可拉伸的弹性体分别作为辐射贴片和介质基板。液态金属使用的是由质量比为75%的镓和25%的铟组成的共晶镓铟合金(EGaIn),弹性体为聚二甲基硅氧烷(PDMS),通过实验测量了PDMS在3种配比下的拉伸量,当质量比为10:1时,PDMS的粘性较低,拉伸性较好。采用软光刻技术制备天线的PDMS模型,然后进行表面处理,使其能够更好地封装,最后将EGaIn包裹在PDMS中形成天线。在PDMS的拉伸极限内,通过对微带天线进行轴向拉伸,随着长度的增加,谐振频率逐渐降低,在4～6 GHz范围内实现了频率可重构。
A novel frequency reconfigurable microstrip patch antenna is proposed,which uses liquid metal alloy and highly extensible elastomer as a radiant patch and a dielectric substrate,respectively.The liquid metal used is eutectic gallium-indium alloy(EGaIn),consisting of 75%gallium and 25%indium.The elastomer used is polymethylsiloxane(PDMS),and the tensile quantity of PDMS under three ratios is measured by experiment.When the mass ratio is 10:1,PDMS has lower viscosity and better stretchability.The PDMS model of the antenna is made by soft lithography,and then the surface is processed so that it can be encapsulated better.Finally,the EGaIn is wrapped in the PDMS to form an antenna.In the tensile limit of PDMS,by axially stretching the microstrip antenna,the resonant frequency gradually decreases as the length increases,and the frequency can be reconfigurable in the range of 4~6 GHz.
