other Improving the directivity of the plasmonic sectoral horn nanoantenna using lens in its aperture فناوری اطلاعات و ارتباطات ICT پژوهشي Research Horn antennas can result in good impedance matching between the waveguide and free space due to the gradual increase in the aperture size. In this paper, a novel plasmonic sectoral horn nanoantenna based on using lens in the aperture is proposed. It is investigated that in addition to improvement of the directivity, the reflection coefficient is also reduced using the proper lens structure. The maximum directivity improvement is about 2 dBi compared to the structure without lens. Also, it is shown that the radiation pattern can be controlled by utilizing electro-optical material as the lens Directivity, Electro-optic effect, Plasmonic Horn Nanoantenna, Reflection Coefficient. 0 0 http://jor.iranaict.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-62-25&slc_lang=other&sid=1 Masumeh Sharifi معصومه شریفی 10031947532846004379 10031947532846004379 Yes Najmeh Nozhat نجمه نوژت 10031947532846004380 10031947532846004380 No Ehsan احسان زارعیان جهرمی 10031947532846004381 10031947532846004381 No
