Abstract
- In this paper, we propose a novel design of broadband monopole optical nano-antennas. It is consisted of a corrugated half elliptical patch inside an elliptical aperture. By adjusting the dimensions of the elliptical patch and the elliptical aperture, the overall performance of the proposed monopole nano-antenna can be made remarkable broadband. Full wave electromagnetic simulations have been used to investigate the effects of different parameters on the nano-antenna performance. Moreover, the proposed broadband nano-antenna can support light waves with different polarizations. It is expected that the new optical antenna will pave the way towards the development of high performance optical antennas and optical systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
