Abstract:This letter introduces an electronically reconfigurable 100-GHz band reflectarray (RA) utilizing a microfiber/liquid crystal composite. The unit cell design is analyzed through full-wave simulations, while experimental measurements elucidate the RA's characteristics, including reflected power, steering range, and switching times. Results demonstrate that the proposed RA exhibits significant continuous beam steering capabilities, ranging from −40º to 40º at 100 GHz, with swift switching times of less than 230 m… Show more
