“…In Reference [22], an optically transparent conductive polymer dipole antenna operating at 900 MHz is designed for radio frequency identification (RFID) applications, as illustrated in Figure 6a. An addition of 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is made to the conductive polymer, Clevios PH500 PEDOT-PSS (σ = 300 S/m), to increase the conductivity by 5 × 10 3 S/m.…”

Transparent antennas have been continuously developed for integration with solar cells, vehicular communications, and ultra-high-speed communications such as 5G in recent years. A transparent antenna takes advantage of spatial extensibility more so than all other antennas in terms of wide range of usable area. In addition, the production price of transparent antennas is steadily decreasing due to the development of nano-process technology. This paper reviews published studies of transparent antennas classified by various materials in terms of optical transmittance and electrical, sheet resistance. The transparent electrodes for the transparent antenna are logically classified and the transparent antennas are described according to the characteristics of each electrode. Finally, the contributions transparent antennas can make toward next-generation 5G high-speed communication are discussed.

“…Thanks to its characteristics, it has been recently used as conductive material for printed antennas applications [13]. Optical translucency of PEDOT:PSS allows to hide an antenna or make the antenna virtually invisible [14,15] when mounted on a transparent substrate, such as the screen of a laptop or PDA, while the ductility allows to attach the polymer on flexible fabrics and plastic substrates. Poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) : poly (styrenesulfonic acid) PEDOT:PSS chemical formula.…”

Abstract-Passive UHF RFID tags, beside item labelling, are also able to exploit capability of sensing the physical state of the tagged object as well as of the surrounding environment. Here a family of polymer-doped tags are proposed and fully characterized for the detection of ambient humidity. A sensitive chemical species based on PEDOT:PSS is used to dope a properly shaped slot carved into a folded-like patch tag. The communication and sensing capabilities of the radio-sensor are investigated by means of simulation and measurements showing how to control and balance above opposite requirements by dosing the quantity of sensitive material. The device could have interesting application in the assessment of the air quality in living and controlled rooms, in the monitoring of the conservation state of foods, in the preservation of walls, and even to monitor the healing degree of wounds.

“…Recently there has been a growing interest in exploiting conducting polymers (CP) for planar antennas [1][2][3][4][5]. The motivation for building an antenna using CPs is to exploit the plastic-like mechanical properties and processability of these materials.…”
