We consider three-dimensional metamaterials involving split-ring resonators (SRRs) that are produced by using low-cost inkjet printing. Following their three-dimensional computational simulations, sensitivity analysis is applied on SRR arrays in order to evaluate their tolerance to various fabrication errors. We use silver-based inks in standard commercial printers in order to fabricate SRRs and their arrays. Measurements demonstrate the feasibility of fabricating very low-cost three-dimensional metamaterials using simple inkjet printing.

Realization of multiband microwave metamaterials fabricated via low-cost inkjet printing İbili, Hande; Keles, Selen; Erıs, Ozgur; Ergül, Özgür Salih (null; 2019-10-17) We present design and computational analysis of multiband metamaterial structures that are fabricated via low-cost inkjet printing. In particular, three-dimensional arrangements of split-ring resonators with different sizes are considered to achieve bandstop characteristics at multiple frequencies. A fast and accurate solver is employed to analyze alternative arrangements, while considering different parameters to obtain strong resonances at desired frequencies. The obtained designs are fabricated in a low-...

Design, Simulation, and Fabrication of Broadband Inkjet-Printed Log-Periodic Antennas Dolapci, Turker; Mutlu, Feza; Ergül, Özgür Salih (2017-09-27) We present design and computational analysis of log-periodic antennas that are fabricated by using low-cost inkjet printing technology. The designed antennas operate in the 1.5-2.5 GHz range and are suitable for diverse applications, including energy harvesting at WiFi and GSM bands. Suitable designs are fabricated by using silver-based inks in standard commercial printers. Despite the challenges in both design and fabrication processes, we demonstrate log-periodic antennas with desired operating properties...
Design of Microstrip Quadruplet Filters on Filpro Oruc, Sacid; Yıldırım, Nevzat (2018-11-02) In this paper, a simple dimensional design procedure is developed for microstrip/stripline quadruplet filters by starting with direct BP synthesis of a lumped quadruplet with inverter couplings, K14, K12, K23 and K34. K14 is the cross-coupling inverter which creates a symmetric pair of finite transmission zeros (FTZ's) if the sign of K14 is opposite of the other inverters while a complex TZ is created if K14 has the same sign as the other inverters leading to linear phase (flat delay) responses. The LC reso...
Design and implementation of microwave lumped components and system integration using MEMS technology Temoçin, Engin Ufuk; Akın, Tayfun; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2006) This thesis presents the design and fabrication of coplanar waveguide to microstrip transitions and planar spiral inductors, and the design of metal-insulator-metal capacitors, a planar band-pass, and a low-pass filter structures as an application for the inductors and capacitors using the RF MEMS technology. This thesis also includes a packaging method for RF MEMS devices with the use of “benzocyclobutene” as bonding material. The transition structures are formed by four different methods between coplanar ...
