Abstract: At least some aspects of the present disclosure feature a waveguide for propagating an electromagnetic wave. The waveguide includes a base material and a plurality of resonators disposed in a pattern, the plurality of resonators having a resonance frequency. Each of the plurality of resonators has a relative permittivity greater than a relative permittivity of the base material. At least two of the plurality of resonators are spaced according to a lattice constant that defines a distance between a center of a first one of the resonators and a center of a neighboring second one of the resonators.

Abstract: Techniques are described for a lens containing high dielectric resonators. In one example, a lens comprises a substrate for propagating an electromagnetic wave and a plurality of resonators dispersed throughout the substrate. Each of the plurality of resonators has a diameter selected based at least in part on a wavelength of the electromagnetic wave and is formed of a dielectric material having a resonance frequency selected based at least in part on a frequency of the electromagnetic wave. Each of the plurality of resonators also has a relative permittivity that is greater than a relative permittivity of the substrate. At least two of the plurality of resonators are spaced within the substrate according to a lattice constant that defines a distance between a center of a first one of the resonators and a center of a neighboring second one of the resonators.

Abstract: An antenna assembly includes a phased array antenna having an array of spaced apart antenna elements arranged on a horizontal surface and having an axis of symmetry, and a lens disposed on the phased array antenna. The lens substantially covers the antenna elements. The lens includes a substantially planar bottom surface. The bottom surface and tops of the antenna elements define a gap therebetween. For a second vertical plane orthogonal to the horizontal surface and including the axis of symmetry. the antenna assembly steers a beam in a second vertical plane having a 3 dB beam width W1 when steered along a first direction making an angle of less than 10 degrees with a normal to the horizontal surface and a 3 dB beam width W2 when steered along a second direction making an angle of greater than 40 degrees with the normal. W1 and W2 within 35% of each other.

Abstract: A device is described having one or more conductive loops to produce an electromagnetic field, such as for wireless power transfer to an electronic device. In some examples, an antenna is used with at least one resonating capacitor ring that is relatively co-planar with the antenna, and that is magnetically coupled to the antenna but is not electrically powered by an external source. In addition, a device is described having two or more thin-film coils, each coil comprising a pair of terminals and at least one loop defining a plane and an interior region. In some examples, the planes of the two or more coils are disposed substantially parallel to one another, the interior regions of the two or more coils at least partially overlap one another, and the pairs of terminals of the antennae are electrically connected in parallel.

Abstract: An optical stack includes a substrate, a radio-wave anti-reflection sheet configured to reduce reflection from the optical stack of radio waves at a predetermined operating frequency, and a visible light reflective, infrared light transmissive multilayer optical film disposed between the radio-wave anti-reflection sheet and the substrate. For radiation substantially normally incident on the radio-wave anti-reflection sheet and for a first frequency range at least 20 GHz wide, centered on the predetermined operating frequency, and disposed between about 1 GHz and about 120 GHz, a return loss of the optical stack is asymmetric about the predetermined operating frequency in the first frequency range. The optical stack has a largest return loss S11L in the first frequency range of less than −10 dB and a difference between the largest return loss S11L and a smallest return loss S11S in the first frequency range is less than about 2 dB.

Abstract: Articles to control an electromagnetic (EM) radiation in the range of 1 GHz to 100 GHz, and methods of making and using the same are provided. An EM controlling sheet structure includes a dielectric carrier layer and an array of metallic resonant elements supported by the dielectric carrier layer to form an EM metamaterial structure in a non-random pattern. The metallic resonant elements are oriented such that each metallic resonant element has an axis substantially parallel to each other and substantially parallel to a major plane of the dielectric carrier layer.

Abstract: A thermally conductive electromagnetically absorbing material includes a plurality of particles dispersed in a binder. The plurality of particles can have a particle size distribution having at least three peaks, where at least a majority of particles within a half width at half maximum of one, but not the other ones, of the at least three peaks are at least partially coated with an electromagnetically absorbing coating. The plurality of particles can include pluralities of first and second particles where a total number of the first particles is at most 1% of a total number of the first and second particles and where the first particles are more electromagnetically absorbing than the second particles. Films, molded articles and systems including the thermally conductive electromagnetically absorbing material are described.

Abstract: An optical construction includes optical stacks arranged across the construction and spaced apart from each other. Each of the optical stacks has a transmittance of at least 60% for at least one visible wavelength and includes one or more electrically conductive layers. The optical stacks are co-extensive with first and second antennas. Each of the electrically conductive layers defines a through opening aligned with at least one of the first and second antennas. For each of an s-polarized first incident signal incident on the optical construction in a first incident plane and a p-polarized second incident signal incident on the optical construction in a second incident plane orthogonal to the first incident plane, for at least one frequency in a range from 0.5 GHz to 10 GHz, and for incident angles of up to 40 degrees, the optical construction has a transmission coefficient of between 0 dB and −10 dB.
