Luminescent materials with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties exhibit high solid state emission, while thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials can fully harvest singlet and triplet excitons to achieve efficient electroluminescence (EL).

In this work, we design a novel polarization converter based on a metasurface with double w-shaped unit cells. The proposed polarization converter can convert linearly polarized incident waves into its cross polarized reflective counterparts in a very wide band with high efficiency. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed polarization converter can achieve a 90° polarization rotation, while the polarization conversion ratio (PCR) is above 90% in the frequency range from 8.44 GHz to 24.96 GHz, and the relative bandwidth can be up to 99%. The measured results agree well with simulation results. The designed double w-shaped metasurface has a very simple geometry, and can realize a highly-efficient and broadband polarization rotation. Therefore, it has practical applications in wireless communication systems, imaging, radar stealth technology, and other fields.

In this paper, we propose to use multi-folded transformation optics method to design a non-contact illusion device that can distantly and freely manipulate the radiation behavior of antenna located at a certain distance and such manipulation is enabled by the use of mapped electromagnetic medium coated with the transformed medium. The proposed design aims to achieve the radiation pattern of our choice from the antenna that does not possess any electromagnetic medium. Based on this, the functionality of parabolic antenna is distantly achieved from the point source. We further extended our idea to array of antennas in which the proposed device distantly makes the linear array of antennas behave like a geometrically different array of antennas. Our work extends the concept of illusion optics for active scatterer that will be very helpful for future antenna design.
