We analyze a coplanar graphene-based nanopatch antenna. Besides the fact that graphene is a moderate conductor at those frequencies, the antenna can still exhibit sharp resonances. Although the poor graphene conductivity implies in general low-performance, a remarkable change of the scattering parameters, radiation pattern and antenna efficiency can be observed as the graphene surface impedance is changed by means of an external Bias.

Abstract
We analyze a coplanar graphene-based nanopatch antenna. Besides the fact that graphene is a moderate conductor at those frequencies, the antenna can still exhibit sharp resonances. Although the poor graphene conductivity implies in general low-performance, a remarkable change of the scattering parameters, radiation pattern and antenna efficiency can be observed as the graphene surface impedance is changed by means of an external Bias.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
