The antenna design and its manufacturing technology is one of the gordian technique in mobile communication system, the performance of antenna influences the performance of the mobile communication system directly. To mobile communication system, the study of antenna has important significance. The development of mobile communication system brings a new request to the antennas design. This paper start from dipole antenna and the structural theory of photonic crystal, bat around the superiority of the two, and make a combination, design a dipole antenna with photonic crystal structure which can work in 2GHz frequency range, small size, return loss in low and bandwidth is suitable for CDMA2000 mobile communication system, and we simulate and test the performance of this antenna, discuss how the parametric variation will influence the performance of antenna.

Abstract Digital encoders are one of the key devices required in optical communication and digital signal processing systems. In this paper, a new photonic crystal structure is used to design all optical 4x2 encoder constructed from GaAs rods with square lattice in the pentane bachground based on plasmonic effect. Gold rods have also been used at the interface of dielectric rods and lines defect, which create plasmonic properties into the photonic crystal structure. The designed optical device is composed of four input waveguides and two output waveguides with two ring resonators at the resonant wavelength of 1.4mm with TM polarization. The presented encoder platform has the small size of 19 mm ×33 mm, that makes it to integration into all optical communication systems. The encoder operation is simulated and analyzed with numerical Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method hand Plane Wave Expansion (PWE) method. In the proposed structure, we have shown that by selecting the appropriate radius size for the resonant cavities, the desirable wavelength can be obtained. The maximum values of transmission efficiency for the first and second outputs are 82% and 96%, respectively. Resonant cavities are also located in the crystal lattice in such a way that by activating third input, 50% and 48% of the input signal will be obtained in each output ports indicating (1,1) logic state. So the new plasmonic photonic crystal encoder could be future applicable in the field of optical computing.

A two-dimensional perovskite photonic crystal structure of Methylamine lead iodide (CH3NH3PbI3, MAPbI3) is rationally designed as the absorption layer for solar cells. The photonic crystal (PC) structure possesses the distinct “slow light” and band gap effect, leading to the increased absorption efficiency of the absorption layer, and thus the increased photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery. Simulation results indicate that the best absorption efficiency can be achieved when the scattering element of indium arsenide (InAs) cylinder is arranged in the absorption layer in the form of tetragonal lattice with the height of 0.6 μm, the diameter of 0.24 μm, and the lattice constant of 0.4 μm. In the wide wavelength range of 400–1200 nm, the absorption efficiency can be reached up to 82.5%, which is 70.1% higher than that of the absorption layer without the photonic crystal structure. In addition, the absorption layer with photonic crystal structure has good adaptability to the incident light angle, presenting the stable absorption efficiency of 80% in the wide incident range of 0–80°. The results demonstrate that the absorption layer with photonic crystal structure can realize the wide spectrum, wide angle, and high absorption of incident light, resulting in the increased utilization efficiency of solar energy.
