High gain/bandwidth off‑chip antenna loaded with metamaterial unit‑cell impedance matching circuit for sub‑terahertz near‑field electronic systems by Alibakhshikenari, Mohammad, Virdee, Bal Singh, Mariyanayagam, Dion, Vadalà, Valeria, Naser-Moghadasi, Mohammad, See, Chan, Dayoub, Iyad, Aïssa, Sonia, Livreri, Patrizia, Burokur, Shah Nawaz, Pietrenko‑Dabrowska, Anna, Falcone, Francisco, Koziel, Slawomir, Limiti, Ernesto

“…The proposed OCA is implemented on stacked silicon layers and consists of an open circuit meandering line. It is shown that by loading the antenna with an array of subwavelength circular dielectric slots and terminating it with a metamaterial unit cell, its impedance bandwidth is enhanced by a factor of two and its gain on average by about 4 dB. …”
