摘要
We are focusing our research attention on the improvement of performance for the intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRS) using liquid crystals. By realizing characterization of dielectric properties in liquid crystals using coaxial line in a wide range of frequency from 1 to 50 GHz, it is revealed that the 3-ring or 4-ring compounds possessing a high nematic-isotropic transition temperature exhibit the effects of reduction for loss tangent. For improving response time and loss tangent of IRS antenna using liquid crystals, low loss tangent reaching closely to0.01 at frequency over 40 GHz band and shortening decay time for the response in almost half were achieveds imultaneously by introducing para-terphenyl liquid crystal compounds without polar groups.
