The eigenvalue equation and the frequency characteristic formulas of the input Voltage Stand Wave Ratio ( VSWR ) are obtained by using the spectral domain method and equivalent circuit method, respectively. With the aid of the numerical results, a C-band microstrip antenna element with bandwidth of 16% (VSWR【1.5) or 25% (VSWR【2) and gain of 10.2-11.3 dB is developed, which are much larger than the bandwidth of 5-6% and the gain of 6-7 dB of the common microstrip antenna element.展开更多

Even though the total electric and magnetic energy in each unit cell of photonic crystals are equal to each other, the ratio of electric and magnetic energy densities varies depending on the local position. Based on Fermi's golden rule, the optical gain is analysed in the full quantum framework that takes the nonuniform energy density ratio into account. This nonuniform energy density ratio in photonic crystals, defined in an equal form as gain modification factor, leads to spatially inhomogeneous modification of optical gain. Results reported in the paper provide a new perspective for analysing gain characteristics, as well as the lasing properties, in photonic crystals.展开更多
