An Improvement Approach for Wide-Angle Impedance Matching Using ELC Metasurface Slabs for SIW Slot Array Antennas by Yi Liu, Hu Yang, Zusheng Jin, Jiang Zhu

“…A simple and effective approach for a deployed SIW slot array antenna through the use of artificially structured materials is proposed to improve its performance of wide-angle scanning in the E-plane. Metasurface slabs of one-tenth wavelength electric-inductive-capacitive (ELC) resonators are vertically placed halfway between the adjacent waveguides without changing the antenna structure to realize wide-angle impedance matching (WAIM). …”

High tolerance of the superconducting current to large grain boundary angles in potassium-doped BaFe2As2 by Takafumi Hatano, Dongyi Qin, Kazumasa Iida, Hongye Gao, Zimeng Guo, Hikaru Saito, Satoshi Hata, Yusuke Shimada, Michio Naito, Akiyasu Yamamoto

“…In HTSs, weak links of superconductivity are inevitable at high-angle grain boundaries (GBs). Thus, two adjacent grains should be crystallographically aligned within the critical angle (θ c), for which the intergrain critical current density (J c) starts to decrease exponentially. …”
