Latest Patents
K Ming Leung holds a patent for an "Ultra-wideband photonic band gap crystal having selectable." This invention provides multidimensional stacked photonic band gap crystal structures that improve the performance of current planar monolithic antennas and RF filters. By forbidding radiation from coupling into the substrate, this technology significantly enhances radiation efficiency and bandwidth. The invention comprises several sub-crystals, each with at least two lattices within a host material. These lattices contain a plurality of dielectric pieces arranged in a predetermined manner. The stacked sub-crystals create a photonic band gap that forbids electromagnetic radiation from propagating over a specially designed frequency band gap, or stopband. Both two-dimensional and multidimensional crystals are disclosed, with the preferred embodiment being a three-dimensional photonic band gap crystal.
