We present a new concept of the thermoelectric structure that generates microwave and terahertz signals when illuminated by femtosecond optical pulses. The structure consists of a series array of capacitively coupled thermocouples. The array acts as a hybrid type microwave transmission line with anomalous dispersion and phase velocity higher than the velocity of light. This allows for adding up the responces from all the thermocouples in phase. The array is easily integrable with microstrip transmission lines. Dispersion curves obtained from both the lumped network scheme and numerical simulations are presented. The connection of the thermocouples is a composite right/left-handed transmission line, which can receive terahertz radiation from the transmission line ports. The radiation of the photon to the surface of the thermocouple structure causes a voltage difference with the bandwidth of terahertz. We examined a lossy composite right/left-handed transmission line to extract the circuit elements. The calculated properties of the design are extracted by employing commercial software package CST STUDIO SUITE.

A variety of antennas have been engineered with MTMs and MTM-inspired constructs to improve their performance characteristics. This report describes the theory of MTMs and its utilization for antenna's techniques. The design and modeling of two MTM structures withε-μconstitutive parameters for patch antennas are presented. The framework presents two novel ultrawideband (UWB) shrinking patch antennas filled with composite right-/left-handed transmission line (CRLH-TL) structures. The CRLH-TL is presented as a general TL possessing both left-handed (LH) and right-handed (RH) natures. The CRLH-TL structures enhance left-handed (LH) characteristics which enable size reduction and large frequency bandwidth. The large frequency bandwidth and good radiation properties can be obtained by adjusting the dimensions of the patches and CRLH-TL structures. This contribution demonstrates the possibility of reducing the size of planar antennas by using LH-transmission lines. Two different types of radiators are investigated—a planar patch antenna composed of fourO-formed unit cells and a planar patch antenna composed of sixO-shaped unit cells. A CRLH-TL model is employed to design and compare these two approaches and their realization with a varying number ofL-Cloaded unit cells. Two representative antenna configurations have been selected and subsequently optimized with full-wave electromagnetic analysis. Return loss and radiation pattern simulations of these antennas prove the developed concept.

Penelitian studi tentang Metamaterials (MTMs) dalam beberapa tahun terakhir telah meningkat sangat pesat. Metamaterials yang di sebut juga artificial material atau  Left Handed (LH) material adalah material yang tidak ada dialam dimana strukturnya direkayasa oleh manusia yang memiliki dua atau lebih properties yang khusus, misalkan pada Double Negative (DNG) material yang memiliki μ negative dan  ε negative. Beberapa pendekatan dalam mendesign metamaterial yaitu pendekatan resonant dan pendekatan Transmission line. Model transmision line yang pertama adalah Right Handed Transmission lines (RH TL) yang dimodelkan dalam sebuah unit sel sebagai rangkaian dan shunt kapasitor shunt(CR), yang kedua adalah Left Handed Transmission Line (LH TL) dimodelkan dalam sebuah unit sel sebagai rangkaian kapasitor seri(CL) dan induktansi shunt(LL). gabungan dari dua buah model transmission line ini disebut Composite Right-left Handed Transmission Line(CRLH TL)  dan ini menjadi dasar dalam mendesign metamaterial. CRLH transmission line dimodelkan dalam sebuah unit sel sebagai rangkaian kapasitor seri(CL), induktansi seri(LR) dan induktansi shunt (LL) serta induktansi shunt(LL). CRLH TL memiliki negatif, nol dankonstanta propagasi positif sesuai dengan karakteristik dari permitivitas efektif dan permeabilitas[1]. Hasil pengukuran bandpass filter menggunakan saluran transmisi CRLH satu sel menunjukkan frekuensi cutoff pada -10dB terletak pada frekuensi 3.016 GHz pada highpass filter dan 5.359GHz pada lowpass filternya. Sedangkan frekuensi 3.4 GHz terletak pada -4.8415 dB sedangkan frekuensi 4.8 Ghz terletak pada -4.753 dB. Hasil dari perancangan menunjukkan bahwa saluran transmisi CRLH satu sel dapat memenuhi spesifikasi yang diminta.
