A Vision and Framework for the High Altitude Platform Station (HAPS) Networks of the Future (2020, background): “To manipulate high-frequency signals, e.g., Gigahertz (GHz) and Terahertz (THz) bands, tune-able materials such as liquid crystal [104] and graphene [105], [106] are used.”
Design and Demonstration of an Electronically Scanned Reflectarray Antenna at 100 GHz Using Multiresonant Cells Based on Liquid Crystals (2015, methodology): “Although this type of cell has already been presented in [3], its behavior was only demonstrated at cell level and not when integrated into the antenna aperture in an array arrangement which is presented in this communication.”
Reconfigurable Folded Reflectarray Antenna Based Upon Liquid Crystal Technology (2015, background): “For instance, coupled microstrip dipole configurations given in [13], [22] exhibit broader bandwidth and larger differential phase shift.”
Reconfigurable Reflectarrays and Array Lenses for Dynamic Antenna Beam Control: A Review (2013, methodology): “The resonant frequency of a simple patch element also can be manipulated in a distributed fashion by varying the dielectric constant of the substrate, which is the operating principle of reflectarray elements using dielectrics with tunable properties such as liquid crystals [46][62][63].”
Roadmap on metasurfaces (2019, background): “Mechanisms such as externally controllable circuit components (varactors, pin diodes) [12] and liquid crystal layers [13] have been investigated for dynamic reconfigurability.”
