19 results about "Slotted waveguide" patented technology

A slotted waveguide is a waveguide that is used as an antenna in microwave radar applications. Prior to its use in surface search radar, such systems used a parabolic segment reflector. The slotted waveguide antenna was the result of collaborative radar research carried on by McGill University and the National Research Council of Canada during World War II. The co-inventors, W.H. Watson and E.W. Guptill of McGill, were granted a United States patent for the device, described as a "directive antenna for microwaves", in 1951.

A phase change material based slotted waveguide optical switch

A slit waveguide optical switch based on phase change materials, belonging to the field of optoelectronic modulation technology, is used to solve the problem that silicon-based optical switches based on thermo-optical effects and carrier dispersion effects cannot simultaneously achieve low power consumption, compact size, wide operating bandwidth, and low insertion loss. The optical switch includes an incident region, a slit modulation region, and an exit region connected sequentially along the optical transmission path. The first S-shaped slit, the rectangular slit, and the second S-shaped slit are connected sequentially. The incident tapered silicon waveguide, the rectangular vanadium dioxide waveguide, and the exit tapered silicon waveguide are connected sequentially. The incident curved silicon waveguide, the rectangular silicon waveguide, and the exit curved silicon waveguide are connected sequentially, forming a coupling waveguide. The S-shaped slit waveguide structure reduces the coupling loss caused by the optical signal entering and exiting the slit waveguide. The modulation function is achieved by applying external electrical excitation to cause a phase change in vanadium dioxide. This results in a compact size, low insertion loss, and good process tolerance.
