Publication Open Access Circuit approach to the minimal configuration of terahertz anomalous extraordinary transmission(American Institute of Physics, 2011) Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Navarro Cía, Miguel; Kuznetsov, Sergei A.; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta ElektronikoaIn this letter we present an in-depth circuit analysis of anomalous extraordinary transmission ET through subwavelength slit and hole arrrays loaded by a dielectric slab. We show the key role played by the thickness of the dielectric slab in order to enhance the transmission for TE-polarized waves incident electric field parallel to the slits or to the short in-plane period in hole arrays arranged in rectangular lattice within the cut-off regime of the apertures and to suppress Wood’s anomaly. Analytical and numerical results together with experimental data are presented, showing good agreement among them. This work provides physical insight of the underlying mechanism governing anomalous ET and offers further independent control over orthogonal polarized waves impinging into subwavelength aperture arrays.Publication Open Access Analysis of surface-plasmon-like modes under an engineering perspective(2011) Navarro Cía, Miguel; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta ElektronikoaIn this communication we show how one can exploit equivalent circuits to analyze surface-plasmon-like modes (slit and hole arrays, Sievenpiper mushrooms and coaxial hole arrays) and to propose new designs with outstanding features.Publication Open Access Mid-infrared spectroscopy (MIR) for simultaneous determination of fat and protein content in meat of several animal species(Springer, 2017) Lozano Saiz, María; Rodríguez Ulibarri, Pablo; Echeverría Morrás, Jesús; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Beriain Apesteguía, María José; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Institute on Innovation and Sustainable Development in Food Chain - ISFOOD; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2The aim of this research was to study the application of MIR spectroscopy as an alternative to conventional methods to determine fat and protein content. Samples of the main species used to produce meat products were analyzed, showing all of them absorption bands at similar wavenumbers though with different intensity. Correlation analysis of absorption intensities showed that bands around 2925, 2854, and 1746 cm−1 are associated with fat content, whereas bands around 3288, 1657, and 1542 cm−1 are associated with proteins. During the validation process, prediction models of fat and protein content were successfully obtained withR2 0.9173 and 0.7534, respectively. Finally, a good result (R2 =0.8829) was obtained on the estimation of the lipid content when the information at only one wavenumber was used.Publication Open Access Experimental demonstration of a millimeter-wave metallic ENZ lens based on the energy squeezing principle(IEEE, 2015) Torres Landívar, Víctor; Orazbayev, Bakhtiyar; Pacheco-Peña, Víctor; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Navarro Cía, Miguel; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaThe performance of an epsilon-near zero (ENZ) plano-concave lens is experimentally demonstrated and verified at the D-band of the millimeter-waves. The lens is comprised of an array of narrow metallic waveguides near cut-off frequency, which effectively behaves as an epsilon-near-zero medium at 144 GHz. A good matching with free space is achieved by exploiting the phenomenon of energy squeezing and a clear focus with a transmission enhancement of 15.9 dB is measured. The lens shows good radiation properties with a directivity of 17.6 dBi and low cross-polar components of -34 dB. All results are supported by numerical simulations.Publication Open Access Low profile THz periodic leaky-wave antenna(IEEE, 2014) Beaskoetxea Gartzia, Unai; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Rodríguez Ulibarri, Pablo; Etayo Salinas, David; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Navarro Cía, Miguel; Zehar, Mokhtar; Blary, Karine; Chahadih, Abdallah; Han, Xiang-Lei; Akalin, Tahsin; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta ElektronikoaIn this work, a 0.566THz flat leaky-wave antenna, consisting of a central λ0/2 slot surrounded by straight parallel wedge corrugations, is numerically and experimentally analyzed. Simulations show a moderately high gain and no significant differences when compared with a typical square corrugation profile. Numerical comparison is also made for the designed and manufactured antennas. High transmission enhancement in the corrugated case is obtained, compared to that given by a single central slot with no grooves. This kind of antennas finds several applications in different frequency ranges, including the nowadays high-interest range of the THz.Publication Open Access New regimes to achieve enhanced transmission through subwavelength hole arrays(2011) Navarro Cía, Miguel; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta ElektronikoaIn this communication we present millimetre- and THz-waves experimental confirmation of enhanced transmission through subwavelength hole arrays with rectangular lattice when the incident electric field is parallel to the short periodicity.Publication Open Access Millimeter-wave phase resonances in compound reflection gratings with subwavelength grooves(Optical Society of America, 2010) Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Navarro Cía, Miguel; Skigin, Diana C.; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta ElektronikoaExperimental evidence of phase resonances in a dual-period reflection structure comprising three subwavelength grooves in each period is provided in the millimeter-wave regime. We have analyzed and measured the response of these structures and show that phase resonances are characterized by a minimum in the reflected response, as predicted by numerical calculations. It is also shown that under oblique incidence these structures exhibit additional phase resonances not present for normal illumination because of the potentially permitted odd field distribution. A satisfactory agreement between the experimental and numerical reflectance curves is obtained. These results confirm the recent theoretical predictions of phase resonances in reflection gratings in the millimeter-wave regime, and encourage research in this subject due to the multiple potential applications, such as frequency selective surfaces, backscattering reduction and complex-surface-wave-based sensing. In addition, it is underlined here that the response becomes much more complex than the mere infinite analysis when one considers finite periodic structures as in the real experiment.Publication Open Access A slow light fishnet-like absorber in the millimeter-wave range(EMW Publishing, 2011) Navarro Cía, Miguel; Torres Landívar, Víctor; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta ElektronikoaA novel route to achieve a narrowband free-space electromagnetic absorber in any range of the spectrum based on stacked subwavelength hole arrays is proposed. The absorption is obtained by means of a slow light mode inside a fishnet-like engineered structure and exploiting the unavoidable misalignments and bucklings of the free-standing stack. An incoming pulse becomes permanently trapped in the structure due to the near zero group velocity which causes an enhancement of the radiation-structure interaction that leads to a huge increment of losses arising from the finite conductivity of the metal as well as arrangement tolerances. This approach is studied not only by simulation but also experimentally under normal incidence at millimeter wavelengths. Moreover, a basic grasp about the angular dependence of the structure is given by analyzing the 2D dispersion diagram. It shows that this scheme may also display high absorption under oblique incidence for s-polarization (or TE-polarization), whereas p-polarization (TM-polarization) would degrade its performance.Publication Open Access Electromagnetic response of extraordinary transmission plates inspired on Babinet’s principle(InTech, 2011) Navarro Cía, Miguel; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta ElektronikoaThis chapter is devoted to polarization effects arisen from perforated metallic plates exhibiting extraordinary transmission (ET). Setting aside the state-of-the-art of perforated metallic plates, we show that by applying Babinet’s principle, subwavelength hole arrays (SHAs) arranged in rectangular lattice can further enhance its potential polarization response. Different perspectives are brought about to describe and understand the particular behaviour of self-complementariness-based SHAs: Babinet’s principle, equivalent circuit analysis, retrieved constitutive parameters, etc. Afterwards, we embark on the numerical analysis of stacked self-complementariness-based perforated plates. It is shown the potential of having a birefringent artificial medium behaving like negative and positive effective refractive index for the vertical and horizontal polarization, respectively. All these findings are experimentally demonstrated at millimetre-waves.Publication Open Access All-metallic ε-near-zero (ENZ) lens based on ultra-narrow hollow rectangular waveguides: experimental results(IEEE, 2014) Orazbayev, Bakhtiyar; Torres Landívar, Víctor; Pacheco-Peña, Víctor; Falcone Lanas, Francisco Javier; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Navarro Cía, Miguel; Engheta, Nader; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaHere we perform numerical and experimental investigation of plano-concave all-metallic ε-near-zero (ENZ) lens with operational frequency f = 144 GHz. The ENZ lens is achieved by stacking an array of narrow hollow rectangular waveguides working near cut-off frequency. Focusing and radiation properties are numerically analyzed and measured. The enhancement of 5.61 dB and directivity of 17.6 dBi are shown. Good agreement between experimental and numerical results is demonstrated.
