A novel dual band, highly sensitive Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) sensor for permittivity measurements is presented. A pair of modified Complementary Split Ring Resonators (CSRRs) is etched on SIW surface. CSRRs are located in the center of SIW, where the electric field distribution is high so that the coupling be maximized. The coupling between the SIW and the CSRRs as well as the adjacent CSRRs results in two notches in transmission coefficient. These notches vary with the dielectric loading on the sensor. The ratio of a notch variation to the load permittivity variation determines the sensitivity of proposed sensor. Two sensitivities proportional to two notches are provided. Normalized sensitivities from both notches show identical values. Therefore, any environmental effect have the same variation on the TZs. This demonstrates the potential of the proposed sensor for differential operation that can mitigate the effect of environmental condition. The size of the proposed sensor is small as the inductive and the capacitive effects of CSRRs forced the SIW to operate below the cut off frequency at negative-order-resonance mode. All design steps including SIW design, CSRRs design and modified CSRRs effects are presented in details. The sensor operation principle is described through an equivalent circuit model as well as simulation results. The experimental results indicates that the normalized sensitivity is 3.4% which is much higher than similar sensors. The prototype sensor size (27.8 x 18.4 x 0.508 mm(3)) is smaller than those reported in the literature.

Metamaterial absorber-based sensor embedded into X-band waveguide SABAH, CUMALİ; TURKMEN-KUCUKSARİ, OZNUR; Sayan, Gönül (Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), 2014-07-17) A novel metamaterial sensor, integrated with an X-band waveguide, is proposed for high-resolution measurements of variations in the dielectric constant and/or the thickness of a superstrate layer that covers a pair of absorber unit cells. Variations in superstrate parameters are potentially caused by physical, chemical or biological factors, and can be detected by measuring the corresponding shifts in the resonance frequency of the metamaterial sensor. It is estimated by simulation results that resolution l...
Integrated optical modulators with zero index metamaterials based on photonic crystal slab waveguides Yildirim, Mustafa; GÖVDELİ, ALPEREN; Kocaman, Serdar (2019-01-01) A novel integrated optical modulator design is presented using zero index metamaterial-based Mach-Zehnder Interferometer with photonic crystal phase shifters. The phase modulation relies on the shift between the photonic bandgaps having non-zero and zero effective refractive indices. A small change in the bulk index results in an effective index change between the arms of the MZI due to the disturbance of the band structure. Thus, such a structure provides a new approach for phase modulation on integrated o...
Alternative design of left-handed metamaterial based on circular resonator and wire strip for waveguide configurations with sensing and absorber applications Gunduz, Ozan T.; Sabah, Cumali (2015-08-01) An alternative design of left-handed (LH) metamaterial (MTM) for waveguide configurations is presented with sensor and absorber applications. The LH structure is based on two identical circular ring resonators connected with a wire strip. Both simulation and experimental results show that the planar MTM has an LH resonance at similar to 9.9 GHz. Surface current and magnetic field distributions at the resonance are also presented to show the LH behavior of the structure in detail. In addition, a parametric s...
Dual polarized slotted waveguide array antenna Doğan, Doğanay; Aydın Çivi, Hatice Özlem; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011) An X band dual polarized slotted waveguide antenna array is designed with very high polarization purity for both horizontal and vertical polarizations. Horizontally polarized radiators are designed using a novel non-inclined edge wall slots whereas the vertically polarized slots are implemented using broad wall slots opened on baffled single ridge rectangular waveguides. Electromagnetic model based on an infinite array unit cell approach is introduced to characterize the slots used in the array. 20 by 10 el...
Bilateral CMUT Cells and Arrays: Equivalent Circuits, Diffraction Constants, and Substrate Impedance KÖYMEN, Hayrettin; ATALAR, ABDULLAH; Tasdelen, A. Sinan (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017-02-01) We introduce the large-signal and small-signal equivalent circuit models for a capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) cell, which has radiating plates on both sides. We present the diffraction coefficient of baffled and unbaffled CMUT cells. We show that the substrate can be modeled as a very thick radiating plate on one side, which can be readily incorporated in the introduced model. In the limiting case, the reactance of this backing impedance is entirely compliant for substrate materials w...
