摘要：Hybrid plasmonic nanopatch antenna with metal-insulator-metal (HMIM) multilayer has been investigated for operation at the frequency of 125–250 THz using the finite element method (FEM) implemented in Ansoft High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS). The proposed antenna exhibits a wide bandwidth of 49.5 THz (151.5 THz–201 THz) for the slots thicknesses Wg = 50 nm and Ws = 100 nm and dual bandwidth for Ws = 20 nm. The obtained results show the input impedance of 50.3 Ω input resistance (real part) and 2.3 Ω reactance (imaginary part) occurring at (near) the operation frequency. The maximum gain of 23.98 dB has been observed for resonant frequencies of 176 THz, and the maximum directivity remains above 6.73 dB and 7.46 dB at resonant frequencies of 170 THz and 190 THz, respectively. Our proposed antenna performance is compared to previously reported designs. The copolar and cross-polar radiation patterns are simulated at different resonant frequencies of 160 THz and 197 THz for planes and . The arrays of a proposed antenna are designed in one and two dimensions in order to appropriate high-gain applications.
