Single Beam Acoustical Tweezers Based on Focused Beams: A Numerical Analysis of Two-Dimensional and Three-Dimensional Trapping Capabilities

Zhixiong Gong, Michael Baudoin

Selective single beam tweezers open tremendous perspectives in microfluidics and microbiology for the micromanipulation, assembly, and mechanical properties testing of microparticles, cells, and microorganisms. In optics, single beam optical tweezers rely on tightly focused laser beams, generating…

Broadband 3-D Shared Aperture High Isolation Nine-Element Antenna Array for On-Demand Millimeter-Wave 5G Applications

Mohammad Alibakhshikenari, Bal Virdee, Valeria Vadalà, Mariana Dalarsson, María Elena de Cos Gómez, Abdullah Alharbi, Shah Nawaz Burokur, Sonia Aïssa, Iyad Dayoub, Francisco Falcone, Ernesto Limiti

The paper presents the results of a novel 3-D shared aperture 3×3 matrix antenna-array for 26 GHz band 5 G wireless networks. Radiation elements constituting the array are hexagonal-shaped patches that are elevated above the common dielectric substrate by 3.35 mm and excited through a metallic rod…

Metasurface-based Filters for High Data Rate THz Wireless Communications: Experimental Validation of a 14 Gbps OOK and 104 Gbps QAM-16 Wireless Link in the 300 GHz band

D. Pirrone, A. Ferraro, D. Zografopoulos, W. Fuscaldo, P. Szriftgiser, Guillaume Ducournau, R. Beccherelli

We demonstrate the effectiveness of frequency selective surface filters in wireless communications at low terahertz (THz) frequencies. Full-wave simulations of pass-band filters designed at 270 GHz and 330 GHz are compared with measurements over 220–360 GHz, showing remarkable agreement. The filter…

CNTFET‐based ternary address decoder design

Rawan Mohammed, Mohammed Fouda, Ihsen Alouani, Lobna Said, Ahmed Radwan

With the end of Moore's law, new paradigms are investigated for more scalable computing systems. One of the promising directions is to examine the data representation toward higher data density per hardware element. Multiple valued logic (MVL) emerged as a promising system due to its…

Dispersion of surface acoustic waves in thin films at extreme wavelength-to-thickness ratios

Marc Duquennoy, Tahar Kadi, Mohammadi Ouaftouh, Nikolay Smagin, Frédéric Jenot

Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) are sensitive to the presence of a layer on the surface of a material, even if this layer is extremely thin compared to their wavelengths. Given the very slow propagation velocities of SAWs compared to electromagnetic waves, their wavelengths are on the order of 40 μm…
