2.5D Inductive Intertwined Frequency Selective Surface for Band-Pass and High Miniaturization Applications by Juan Andres Vasquez-Peralvo, Rocio Chueca Lasheras, Juan Carlos Merlano Duncan, Shuai Zhang, Pavel Pechac, Vaclav Kabourek, Symeon Chatzinotas

“…Additionally, the unique 2.5D configuration introduces extra inductance and capacitance, effectively shifting higher harmonics to higher frequencies, thus maintaining a stable stop band beyond the fundamental harmonic. The angular stability analysis reveals minimal variation up to an incidence angle of 60° for both TE and TM modes across the fundamental harmonic. …”
