三层单负材料为周期单元对称型一维光子晶体的频率特性

应用传输矩阵法研究了以三层单负材料为周期单元对称型一维光子晶体(ABC)M(CBA)M。结果表明,其带隙结构对入射角的敏感程度与光波的偏振性有关,TE波的高频通带会随着入射角的增大向中心频率移动,而TM波的带隙结构对入射角的变化不敏感。研究还发现各介质层厚度的变化对能带结构的影响规律不相同。当保持各介质层厚度比不变,成倍增大各介质层厚度,高、低频通带变窄并向中心频率移动,低频区通带首先消失。当改变各介质层厚度比时,若保持A、C层厚度不变,减小B层厚度,高、低频通带分别向两侧移动同时收缩变窄;若保持B层厚度不变,增大A、C层厚度,高、低频区通带同样变窄,低频区通带首先消失,带隙同样变宽。最后研究了该光子晶体的零有效相位带隙结构,发现其通带随晶格常数的增大逐渐向中心频率移动同时收缩变窄,这一特性可以用来设计单通道窄带零有效相位延迟滤波器。

SAW Filters Composed of Interdigital Schottky and Ohmic Contacts on AlGaN/GaN Heterostructures

We proposed surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters composed of interdigital Schottky and ohmic contacts on AlGaN/GaN heterostructures. The contribution of the SAWs appeared in the radio frequency characteristics of the filters when the Schottky contacts were reverse biased. Onsets of the SAW signals and the threshold voltage of simultaneously fabricated high-electron mobility transistors were found to almost agree with one another. We also obtained an isolation of >40 dB. These results suggest that SAW-based functional devices are likely to be realized using AlGaN/GaN heterostructures with interdigital Schottky and ohmic contacts

Greedy Algorithm for the Design of Linear-Phase FIR Filters with Sparse Coefficients

In this work, a greedy algorithm for the design of sparse linear-phase finite impulse response filters wherein the coefficients are successively fixed to zero individually is proposed. To meet the filter specifications, the coefficient for which the middle value of its feasible range is closest to zero is selected to be set to zero, whereas all the other unfixed coefficients are free to change. Design examples show that the proposed technique can design FIR filters with higher sparsity than that obtained by existing nonexhaustive algorithms for given specifications. To show the optimality of the algorithm, we design 100 filters, with results showing that the global optimal solution, i.e., the sparsest solution found by exhaustive search, can be achieved in most cases, but with much less computation time.     

Special features of structural interaction in (AlGaIn)N/GaN heterostructures used as dislocation filters

The behavior of threading dislocations in AlGaN and InGaN layers incorporated into GaN-based heterostructures is studied.

Estimations of the stresses generated by dislocations and nanodomains show good agreement between the theory and experiment.     

Properties of digital bandpasses obtained by convolution approximation for zero frequency

It is shown how to construct transfer functions of digital filters by means of numerical solution of a certain integral equation, the result of which is the response of a continuous filter to an input signal. For bandpasses with zero transmission for zero frequency this method preserves this zero also for the corresponding digital filter.     

On the stability of two-dimensional continuous filters

The Hermite stability criterion for one-dimensional filters is applied to prove the stability theorems for two-dimensional continuous filters. It is shown that the problem in the stability theorems for the two-dimensional continuous filters when the leading coefficient becomes zero is inherent in the Hermite stability criterion for the one-dimensional filters. It is in sharp contrast to the Schur-Cohn criterion which does not have such a problem.     

Pseudo-elliptic microstrip line filters with zero-shifting properties

The paper presents a new design of pseudo-elliptic microstrip line filters. These filters employ a coupling scheme which allows shifting of transmission zeros from one side of the passband to the other by only changing the resonant frequencies of the resonators. To demonstrate the performance of these filters, a fourth-order bandpass filter with one transmission zero in the upper stopband is first designed. A second filter with a transmission zero in the lower stopband is then designed by simply adjusting the lengths of the resonators followed by minor optimization to account for the fact that the resonant frequencies can not be changed without slightly affecting the coupling coefficients in the used layout. Measured and simulated results are presented.     

Singlets, cascaded singlets, and the nonresonating node model for advanced modular design of elliptic filters

The singlet, which contains one resonator and generates one transmission zero, is introduced as the most basic building block for modular design of elliptic filters. Higher-order elliptic filters are designed by cascading singlets to generate the required transmission zeros. A novel model, the nonresonating node model (NRNM), which contains both resonating and nonresonating nodes is then introduced. The model allows a high level of modularity in the design of elliptic filters. Example filters are designed and measured to validate the model and the design approach.     

Coupling coefficients of step-impedance resonators in stripeline band-pass filters of array type

There are researched specificities of electromagnetic coupling coefficients at main and higher resonance frequencies between step-impedance resonators, fabricated from symmetric stripe transmission lines with open ends. It is shown, modification of step resonators parameters can result in modification of the coupling coefficient at main resonance frequency in wide range, that allows to realize band-pass filters of array type. It is stated in case of several values of parameters of stripe resonators their coupling coefficients values at frequencies higher than main one are zero. It is proposed a new method of expansion of suppressed frequency band of pass-band filters of array type, which is based on suppression of the first parasitic pass band due to zero coupling coefficient.
