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 Elektronikoa
This 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.

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 Elektronikoa
In 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.

Strong lateral displacement in polarization anisotropic extraordinary transmission metamaterial
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2010) Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Navarro Cía, Miguel; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
In this paper, a deep numerical as well as experimental study of the anisotropy response of extraordinary transmission metamaterials constructed by stacking subwavelength hole arrays is presented. Two-dimensional (2D) dispersion diagrams for S- and P-polarization were obtained from simulation. From them, it was found that negative refraction can be obtained for the latter case for small angles of incidence. Additionally, it was found that double periodic and dielectric loaded hole arrays are optimal to enlarge the numerical aperture that leads to negative refraction. Several experiments are then presented in the V-band of the millimetre-wave range that show excellent agreement with the numerical calculations. Moreover, the richness of the anisotropic characteristic exhibited by the stacked hole array structure allows for designing structures with complex electromagnetic response other than solely negative refraction. Thus, the results presented here could be taken as a novel route to achieve exotic behaviour, such as negative refraction at other frequency ranges, like terahertz or the visible.

Comment on “A waveguide slit array antenna fabricated with subwavelength periodic grooves Appl. Phys. Lett. 91, 143512 (2007)”
(AIP Publishing, 2008) Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Falcone Lanas, Francisco; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Campillo, Igor; Dolado, J. S.; Rodríguez Seco, J. E.; Perea, E.; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
We firmly think that it is proven that most of the ideas, results, and discussions presented in C. Huang, C. L. Du, and X. G. Luo, Appl. Phys. Lett. 91, 143512, 2007 were already present in our previous paper (M. Beruete, I. Campillo, J. S. Dolado, J. E. Rodríguez-Seco, E. Perea, F. Falcone, and M. Sorolla, IEEE Trans. Antennas Propag. 54, 340, 2006) and that the antenna design in Huang et al. cannot be considered original at all since it is identical to our design. The only innovative aspect in Huang et al. is the discussion about the multiple slit source.

Extraordinary transmission and left-handed propagation in miniaturized stacks of doubly periodic subwavelength hole arrays
(Optical Society of America, 2007) Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Navarro Cía, Miguel; Falcone Lanas, Francisco; Campillo, Igor; Lomakin, Vitaliy; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
Metallic plates embedded between dielectric slabs and perforated by rectangular arrays of subwavelength holes with a dense periodicity in one of the directions support extraordinary transmission (ET) phenomena, viz. strong peaks in the transmittance frequency dependence. Stacks of such perforated plates support ET phenomena with propagation along the stack axis that is characterized by the left handed behavior. The incorporation of the dielectric materials and dense periodicity allows significantly reducing the illuminated area of the perforated plate required experimentally to observe the ET phenomena as compared to the areas required in the case of free standing rectangular hole arrays. This facilitates the experimental investigation of ET under excitation in the Fresnel zone of Gaussian beams.

Generation of the HE11 mode from monomode smooth circular waveguide
(1996) Gonzalo García, Ramón; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
In this paper, we present an original taper design to obtain the HE11 corrugated circular waveguide mode exciting with a pure TE11 monomode smooth circular waveguide mode. The proposed corrugated taper has a longitudinal section composed of two hyperbolic profiles in series, one concave and the other convex united at a point, such that the derivative is continuous. Superimposed there is an additional tapering of the corrugation depth that goes from l/2 at taper input to l/4 within the first hyperbola. This original synthesis procedure has been successfully tested by computational simulation. The calculation method has been validated be experimental results of other authors.

Regular and anomalous extraordinary optical transmission at the THz-gap
(Optical Society of America, 2009) Kuznetsov, Sergei A.; Navarro Cía, Miguel; Kubarev, V. V.; Gelfand, A. V.; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Campillo, Igor; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
In this paper Anomalous Extraordinary Transmission (ET) is reported for s-polarization of low loss doubly periodic subwavelength hole arrays patterned on polypropylene (PP) substrates by conventional contact photolithography at the so-called THz-gap (1-10 THz). The unexpected enhanced transmittance for s-polarization (i.e. without spoof plasmons) was previously numerically demonstrated in subwavelength slits arrays. However, subsequently no experimental work has been devoted to this unexpected Extraordinary Transmission neither in subwavelength slits nor in subwavelength holes. Here, numerical study and experimental results of the Anomalous ET and the symmetric and antisymmetric transmittance modes associated with the already well-known p-polarization ET are shown alongside a systematically analysis of the frequency peaks as a function of hole size for both incident polarizations.

The measurements results of a new design of corrugated horn antennas [1, 2, 3] following the gaussian expansion are presented in this paper. The performance of two corrugated horn antennas of this kind was verified in the ESTEC Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR) [4]. Very high agreement between measured and predicted results is found.

Diseño óptimo de antenas de bocina multimodo para excitar un haz gaussiano fundamental de alta pureza
(1996) Gonzalo García, Ramón; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
In this paper, we present an original and optimal multimode horn antenna design to excite the fundamental Gaussian beam from an overmoded waveguide. In particular, we focus the study in overmoded circular corrugated waveguide. The main idea to design this multimode horn antenna, is to increase the waveguide radius as the desired gaussian mode expands. This principle has also been applied to smooth circular waveguides to excite higher order Gaussian beams from TE0n modes. The horn antenna design considered here, improves the gaussian conversion efficiency, the crosspolarisation and the sidelobes level of some good mixture ( aprox. 85% of TE11 and 15% of TM11 ).

High order mode beam waveguide for technological medium power millimeter wave applications
(1995) Río Bocio, Carlos del; Gonzalo García, Ramón; Marín Pilz, Miguel; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Möbius, Arnold; Thumm, Manfred; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
The use of medium power millimeter wave CW gyrotrons (10- 30 kW and 30-100 GHz) has several potential applications in advanced materials processing. Since a stochastic field distribution in the applicator is desirable no pencil beam is necessary. Then the possibility to couple the circular symmetric gyrotron output to a higher order free space mode can be considered. Beam waveguides based on iterative reflection of such high order beams on properly designed mirrors opens the possibility to increase the efficiency and to reduce costs of present compact transmission lines in gyrotron technological systems.
