A terahertz (THz) antenna with tunable filtering is designed and numerically studied. A slotted monopole radiator with defected ground structure is used for operating with wideband response with an impedance bandwidth in the range of 3.80-11.98 THz for ≤-10 . A slot is engraved in the radiator for obtaining the filtering characteristics in the antenna response. By varying its chemical potential, the frequency band 5.05-6.69 THz with graphene material can provide the tunability in the frequency and bandwidth of the filtered band in the antenna response. Furthermore, the antenna can provide radiation efficiency of more than 90% and gain with a peak value of 6.6 dBi in the passband.

In radio frequency identification (RFID), differences in spectrum policies and tag misreading in different countries are the two main issues that limit its application. To solve these problems, this article proposes a composite right/left-handed transmission line (CRLH-TL)-based reconfigurable antenna for ultra-high frequency near-field and far-field RFID reader applications. The CRLH-TL is achieved using a periodically capacitive gap-loaded parallel plate line.

Conducting polymers have emerged as promising active materials for metasurfaces due to their electrically tunable states and large refractive index modulation. However, existing approaches are often limited to infrared operation or single-polymer systems, restricting their versatility. In this Letter, we present organic metasurfaces featuring dual conducting polymers, polyaniline (PANI) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), to achieve contrasting dynamic optical responses at visible frequencies.

Article Synopsis
- Ln-MOFs are unique materials made from lanthanide ions and organic ligands, known for their porous nature and luminescent properties.
- The study focuses on the effects of photoexcitation and molecular aggregation of the ligand TPTB and its interaction with Tb3+ ions, revealing key insights into how these factors influence the structure and luminescence of the MOF.
- Findings indicate that UV light treatment prior to crystallization can enhance the luminescence and modify the characteristics of the resulting crystals, suggesting potential uses in areas like anti-counterfeiting and sensing technologies.

Light-harvesting complexes (LHCs) play a critical role in modulating energy flux within photosynthetic organisms in response to fluctuating light. Under high light conditions, they activate quenching mechanisms to mitigate photodamage. Despite their importance, the molecular mechanisms underlying these photoprotective processes remain incomplete.

This study explores the achievement of a tunable true time-delay (TTD) system for a microwave phased-array antenna (MPAA) by incorporating the reversible phase-transition property of phase-change material (PCM) with Bragg gratings (BGs) and a cascade of three phase-shifted Bragg grating resonators (CPSBGRs). The goal was to design a low-power-consuming, non-volatile highly tunable compact TTD system for beam steering. A programmable on/off reflector was designed by changing a PCM-incorporated BG/CPSBGR from one phase to another.
