The research of high-directive anisotropic magnetic metamaterial antenna loaded with frequency-selective surface

This paper uses a Computer Simulation Technology microwave studio to simulate the performance of a new highdirectivity anisotropic magnetic metamaterial antenna loaded with a frequency-selective surface. Frequency-selective surface with cross-dipole element has a great effect on the directivity, radiation pattern, and gain of such an antenna. The experimental results show that frequency-selective surface （FSS） significantly improve the radiation performance of anisotropic magnetic metamaterial antenna. For example, as a single anisotropic magnetic metamaterial antenna, half power beam width is 4 degrees in the H planes, and the gain of this antenna is 19.5dBi at 10CHz, achieving a 2.1 degree increment in half power beam width, and a 7.3 dB gain increment by loading with the FSS reflector. The simulating results are consistent with our experimental results.

Preparation technologies for polymer composites with high-directional thermal conductivity:A review

With the rapid development of science and technology,electronic devices are moving towards miniaturization and integration,which brings high heat dissipation requirements.During the heat dissipation process of a heating element,heat may spread to adjacent components,causing a decrease in the performance of the element.To avoid this situation,the ability to directionally transfer heat energy is urgently needed.Therefore,thermal interface materials(TIMs)with directional high thermal conductivity are more critical in thermal management system of electronic devices.For decades,many efforts have been devoted to the design and fabrication of TIMs with high-directional thermal conductivity.Benefiting from the advantage in feasibility,low-cost and scalability,compositing with thermal conductive fillers has been proved to be promising strategy for fabricating the high-directional thermal conductive TIMs.This review summarizes the present preparation technologies of polymer composites with high-directional thermal conductivity based on structural engineering of thermal conductive fillers,focusing on the manufacturing process,mechanisms,achievements,advantages and disadvantages of different technologies.Finally,we summarize the existing problems and potential challenges in the field of directional high thermal conductivity composites.

Development of a high-power and ultra-high-vacuum waveguide coupler working at C/X band

Waveguide directional couplers working at 5.712/11.9924 GHz are developed. Even holes symmetrical to the structure are drilled along the central line of the narrow-wall of the waveguide, which are used to couple the electromagnetic power from the main-waveguide to the sub-waveguide. The final prototypes have achieved satisfactory performances of high-power, ultra-high-vacuum and high-directivity. The microwave measurement results are also qualified.
