In this model, we introduce a cloaking method using an electrically tuned monolayer of graphene. We will show that when a cylindrical dielectric scatterer is covered in graphene, the scattering cross section is greatly reduced at the designated frequency, making it electromagnetically ... Read More
A solidly-mounted resonator (SMR) is a piezoelectric MEMS resonator formed on top of an acoustic mirror stack deposited on a thick substrate. This tutorial shows how to simulate an SMR in 2D. In this example, the eigenmodes were computed and the frequency response from 500 to 1200 MHz ... Read More
The Yagi–Uda antenna is designed for a specific Wi-Fi band and can reduce eavesdropping by directing signals with the help of directors. This antenna consists of one uniformly spaced reflector and four directors. Simulated results show a maximum 10 dBi gain and a front-to-back ratio of ... Read More
This model shows how to model a simple Shockley diode— a four-layer PNPN semiconductor device. The Shockley diode is also named as thyristor. In this model, the Analytic Doping Model node is utilized to define the doping profiles for each domain. A time-dependent study is employed to ... Read More
MOSFETs typically operate in three regimes depending on the drain-source voltage for a given gate voltage. Initially the current-voltage relation is linear, this is the Ohmic region. As the drain-source voltage increases the extracted current begins to saturate, this is the saturation ... Read More
This tutorial shows how to model a miniaturized magnetostrictive antenna developed for use inside living cells. The stress in the antenna, the magnetic flux density, the current density, and the displacement of the tip of the device are investigated at the resonance frequency. Read More
An eigenfrequency study is used to find the resonance frequency and threshold gain for an oxide-confined, GaAs-based, vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL). The simulations are performed in two steps. A regular eigenfrequency analysis is first performed, to find good initial ... Read More
This tutorial analyzes the resistive heating (Joule heating) of a busbar assembly designed to conduct a direct current from a current source to the anode in an electrolysis process. Read More
