Frequency Selective Surfaces (FSS) are periodic structures in one or two dimensions that act as spatial filters, can be formed by elements of type conductors patches or apertures, functioning as filters band-stop or band-pass respectively. The interest in the study of FSS has grown through the years, because such structures meet specific requirements as low-cost, reduced dimensions and weighs, beyond the possibility to integrate with other microwave circuits. The most varied applications for such structures have been investigated, as for example, radomes, antennas systems for airplanes, electromagnetic filters for reflective antennas, absorbers structures, etc. Several methods have been used for the analysis of FSS, among them, the Wave Method (WCIP). Are various shapes of elements that can be used in FSS, as for example, fractal type, which presents a relative geometric complexity. This work has as main objective to propose a simplification geometric procedure a fractal FSS, from the analysis of influence of details (gaps) of geometry of the same in behavior of the resonance frequency. Complementarily is shown a simple method to adjust the frequency resonance through analysis of a FSS, which uses a square basic cell, in which are inserted two reentrance and dimensions these reentrance are varied, making it possible to adjust the frequency. For this, the structures are analyzed numerically, using WCIP, and later are characterized experimentally comparing the results obtained. For the two cases is evaluated, the influence of electric and magnetic fields, the latter through the electric current density vector. Is realized a bibliographic study about the theme and are presented suggestions for the continuation of this work

The planar circuits are structures that increasingly attracting the attention of researchers, due the good performance and capacity to integrate with other devices, in the prototyping of systems for transmitting and receiving signals in the microwave range. In this context, the study and development of new techniques for analysis of these devices have significantly contributed in the design of structures with excellent performance and high reliability. In this work, the full-wave method based on the concept of electromagnetic waves and the principle of reflection and transmission of waves at an interface, Wave Concept Iterative Procedure (WCIP), or iterative method of waves is described as a tool with high precision study microwave planar circuits. The proposed method is applied to the characterization of planar filters, microstrip antennas and frequency selective surfaces. Prototype devices were built and the experimental results confirmed the proposed mathematical model. The results were also compared with simulated results by Ansoft HFSS, observing a good agreement between them.

Using the U(4) hybrid formalism, manifestly N = (2,2) worldsheet supersymmetric sigma models are constructed for the type-IIB superstring in Ramond-Ramond backgrounds. The Kahler potential in these N = 2 sigma models depends on four chiral and antichiral bosonic superfields and two chiral and antichiral fermionic superfields. When the Kahler potential is quadratic, the model is a free conformal field theory which describes a flat ten-dimensional target space with Ramond-Ramond flux and non-constant dilaton. For more general Kahler potentials, the model describes curved target spaces with Ramond-Ramond flux that are not plane-wave backgrounds. Ricci-flatness of the Kahler metric implies the on-shell conditions for the background up to the usual four-loop conformal anomaly.

We address the question about the velocity of signals carried by Bessel beams wave packets propagating in vacuum and having well defined wavefronts in time. We find that this problem in analogous to that of propagation of usual plane wave packets within dispersive media and conclude that the signal velocity cannot be superluminal. (C) 2001 Elsevier B.V.

Physical and chemical adsorption of CO 2 on ZnO surfaces were studied by means of two different implementations of periodic density functional theory. Adsorption energies were computed and compared to values in the literature. In particular, it was found that the calculated equilibrium structure and internuclear distances are in agreement with previous work. CO 2 adsorption was analyzed by inspection of the density of states and electron localization function. Valence bands, band gap and final states of adsorbed CO 2 were investigated and the effect of atomic displacements analyzed. The partial density of states (PDOS) of chemical adsorption of CO 2 on the ZnO(0001) surface show that the p orbitals of CO 2 were mixed with the ZnO valence band state appearing at the top of the valence band and in regions of low-energy conduction band.

A América do Sul apresenta várias peculiaridades geomagnéticas, uma delas, é a presença do Eletrojato Equatorial, o qual se estende de leste para oeste no Brasil ao longo de aproximadamente 3500 km. Considerando-se o fato de que a influência do Eletrojato Equatorial pode ser detectada a grandes distâncias do seu centro, isto suscita o interesse em se estudar os seus efeitos na exploração magnetotelúrica no Brasil. A influência do eletrojato equatorial na prospecção magnetotelúrica tem sido modelada para meios geológicos uni e bidimensionais valendo-se para isto de soluções analíticas fechadas e de técnicas numéricas tais como elementos finitos e diferenças finitas. Em relação aos meios geológicos tridimensionais, eles tem sido modelados na forma de "camadas finas", usando o algoritmo "thin sheet". As fontes indutoras utilizadas para simular o eletrojato equatorial nestes trabalhos, tem sido linhas de corrente, eletrojatos gaussianos e eletrojatos ondulantes. Por outro lado, o objetivo principal da nossa tese foi o modelamento dos efeitos que o eletrojato equatorial provoca em estruturas tridimensionais próprias da geofísica da prospecção. Com tal finalidade, utilizamos o esquema numérico da equação integral, com as fontes indutoras antes mencionadas. De maneira similar aos trabalhos anteriores, os nossos resultados mostram que a influência do eletrojato equatorial somente acontece em frequências menores que 10-1 Hz. Este efeito decresce com a distância, mantendo-se até uns 3000 km do centro do eletrojato. Assim sendo, a presença de grandes picos nos perfis da resistividade aparente de um semi-espaço homogêneo, indica que a influência do eletrojato é notável neste tipo de meio. Estes picos se mostram com diferente magnitude para cada eletrojato simulado, sendo que a sua localização também muda de um eletrojato para outro. Entretanto, quando se utilizam modelos geo-elétricos unidimensionais mais de acordo com a realidade, tais como os meios estratificados, percebe-se que a resposta dos eletrojatos se amortece significativamente e não mostra muitas diferenças entre os diferentes tipos de eletrojato. Isto acontece por causa da dissipação da energia eletromagnética devido à presença da estratificação e de camadas condutivas. Dentro do intervalo de 3000 km, a resposta eletromagnética tridimensional pode ser deslocada para cima ou para baixo da resposta da onda plana, dependendo da localização do corpo, da frequência, do tipo de eletrojato e do meio geológico. Quando a resposta aparece deslocada para cima, existe um afastamento entre as sondagens uni e tridimensionais devidas ao eletrojato, assim como um alargamento da anomalia dos perfis que registra a presença da heterogeneidade tridimensional. Quando a resposta aparece deslocada para baixo, no entanto, há uma aproximação entre estes dois tipos de sondagens e um estreitamento da anomalia dos perfis. Por outro lado, a fase se mostra geralmente, de uma forma invertida em relação à resistividade aparente. Isto significa que quando uma sobe a outra desce, e vice-versa. Da mesma forma, comumente nas altas frequências as respostas uni e tridimensionais aparecem deslocadas, enquanto que nas baixas frequências se mostram com os mesmos valores, com exceção dos eletrojatos ondulantes com parâmetros de ondulação α = —2 e —3. Nossos resultados também mostram que características geométricas próprias das estruturas tridimensionais, tais como sua orientação em relação à direção do eletrojato e a dimensão da sua direção principal, afetam a resposta devido ao eletrojato em comparação com os resultados da onda plana. Desta forma, quando a estrutura tridimensional é rotacionada de 90°, em relação à direção do eletrojato e em torno do eixo z, existe uma troca de polarizações nas resistividades dos resultados, mas não existem mudanças nos valores da resistividade aparente no centro da estrutura. Ao redor da mesma, porém, se percebe facilmente alterações nos contornos dos mapas de resistividade aparente, ao serem comparadas com os mapas da estrutura na sua posição original. Isto se deve à persistência dos efeitos galvânicos no centro da estrutura e à presença de efeitos indutivos ao redor do corpo tridimensional. Ao alongar a direção principal da estrutura tridimensional, as sondagens magnetotelúricas vão se aproximando das sondagens das estruturas bidimensionais, principalmente na polarização XY. Mesmo assim, as respostas dos modelos testados estão muito longe de se considerar próximas das respostas de estruturas quase-bidimensionais. Porém, os efeitos do eletrojato em estruturas com direção principal alongada, são muito parecidos com aqueles presentes nas estruturas menores, considerando-se as diferenças entre as sondagens de ambos tipos de estruturas. Por outro lado, os mapas de resistividade aparente deste tipo de estrutura alongada, revelam um grande aumento nos extremos da estrutura, tanto para a onda plana como para o eletrojato. Este efeito é causado pelo acanalamento das correntes ao longo da direção principal da estrutura. O modelamento de estruturas geológicas da Bacia de Marajó confirma que os efeitos do eletrojato podem ser detetados em estruturas pequenas do tipo "horst" ou "graben", a grandes distâncias do centro do mesmo. Assim, os efeitos do eletrojato podem ser percebidos tanto nos meios estratificados como tridimensionais, em duas faixas de freqüência (nas proximidades de 10-1 Hz e para freqüências menores que 10-3 Hz), possivelmente influenciados pela presença do embasamento cristalino e a crosta inferior, respectivamente. Desta maneira, os resultados utilizando o eletrojato como fonte indutora, mostram que nas baixas freqüências as sondagens magnetotelúricas podem ser fortemente distorcidas, tanto pelos efeitos galvânicos da estrutura tridimensional como pela presença da influência do eletrojato. Conseqüêntemente, interpretações errôneas dos dados de campo podem ser cometidas, se não se corrigirem os efeitos do eletrojato equatorial ou, da mesma forma, não se utilisarem algoritmos tridimensionais para interpretar os dados, no lugar do usual modelo unidimensional de Tikhonov - Cagniard.

The pristine boron nitride nanotubes have a large direct band gap around 5 eV. This band gap can be engineered by doping. We investigate electronic structure of the doped hexagonal boron nitride (5,5) nanotubes using the linearized augmented cylindrical wave method. In particular, this work focuses on systematical study of the band gap and the density of states around the Fermi-level when the nanotubes are doped by intrinsic impurities of two substitutional boron atoms in a super cell and a comparative analysis of the relative stability of three structures studied here. This corresponds to 3.3% of impurity concentration. We calculate 29 configurations of the nanotubes with different positions of the intrinsic impurities in the nanotube. The band gap and density of states around the Fermi level show strong dependence on the relative positions of the impurity atoms. The two defect sub bands called D(B) appear in the band gap of the pristine nanotube. The doped nanotubes possess p-type semiconductor properties with the band gap of 1.3-1.9 eV.

It is important to ensure smoothly operation of a transmission line, sending energy to the consumption centers with minimal interruptions and safer. With this necessity, the fault location techniques have grown, in order to mitigate the impact of the fault and its correction can be more quickly and accurately. This paper presents a comparison between two different techniques of fault location, the fault location by impedance method, which uses the line parameters, the impedance per distance, voltage and current signals, and the other is the traveling wave method, which uses only a very fast analysis of time, synchronization and length between the line ends, do not using voltage and current values, but the temporal perception of the fault. Using travelling waves fault detection makes the previous knowledge of line parameters obsolete, which helps a lot network technicians and engineers with a quick and easy analysis. The methods are simulated in ATP Draw software, so both algorithms can be evaluated for their effectively and accuracy

The physical properties of small rhodium clusters, Rh-n, have been in debate due to the shortcomings of density functional theory (DFT). To help in the solution of those problems, we obtained a set of putative lowest energy structures for small Rh-n (n = 2-15) clusters employing hybrid-DFT and the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). For n = 2-6, both hybrid and GGA functionals yield similar ground-state structures (compact), however, hybrid favors compact structures for n = 7-15, while GGA favors open structures based on simple cubic motifs. Thus, experimental results are crucial to indicate the correct ground-state structures, however, we found that a unique set of structures (compact or open) is unable to explain all available experimental data. For example, the GGA structures (open) yield total magnetic moments in excellent agreement with experimental data, while hybrid structures (compact) have larger magnetic moments compared with experiments due to the increased localization of the 4d states. Thus, we would conclude that GGA provides a better description of the Rh-n clusters, however, a recent experimental-theoretical study [ Harding et al., J. Chem. Phys. 133, 214304 (2010)] found that only compact structures are able to explain experimental vibrational data, while open structures cannot. Therefore, it indicates that the study of Rh-n clusters is a challenging problem and further experimental studies are required to help in the solution of this conundrum, as well as a better description of the exchange and correlation effects on the Rh n clusters using theoretical methods such as the quantum Monte Carlo method.
