In this paper, a new multiband metamaterial absorber design is proposed and the numerical characterization is carried out. The design is composed of three layers with differently sized quadruplets in which the interaction among them causes the multiband absorption response in the infrared frequency regime. In order to characterize the absorber. and explain the multiband topology, some parametric studies with respect to the dimensions of the structure are carried out and the contributions of the quadruplets to the absorption spectrum are analyzed. According to the results, it is found that the proposed metamaterial absorber has five bands in the infrared frequency regime with the absorption levels of: 98.90%, 99.39%, 86.46%, 92.80% and 97.96%. Moreover, the polarization dependency of the structure is examined and it is found that the design operates well as a perfect absorber with polarization independency in the studied frequency range.

Eser, Dogancan; Demir, Şimşek (2019-06-01)
In this paper, a novel S band metamaterial based rectangular slow-wave structure (RSWS) is proposed for high-power backward-wave oscillator (BWO). The circular waveguide is loaded with R-SWS that shows negative permittivity and permeability. Since RSWS shows negative permittivity and permeability which is the key characteristics of metamaterial, it can operate below the cut-off frequency. CST Studio Suite is used to analyze high frequency characteristic of SWS. Dispersion diagram of the unit cell is observe...

This paper presents a compact model for threshold self-compensated rectifiers that can be used to optimize circuit parameters early in the design phase instead of time-consuming transient simulations. A design procedure is presented for finding the optimum aspect ratio of transistors used in the converter and number of rectifying stages to achieve the maximum power conversion efficiency. In the presented analysis, the relation between the power conversion efficiency and the load current over the variation o...
