POLYNICES Paper “A compact 100-GHz omnidirectional monopole probe dielectric resonator antenna enabled by micromachined silicon coaxial cavity” at SPIE Photonics West 2025

We are excited to share that POLYNICES paper, “A compact 100-GHz omnidirectional monopole probe dielectric resonator antenna enabled by micromachined silicon coaxial cavity”, authored by K. Spanidou, D. Headland, and G. Carpintero, was presented at SPIE Photonics West 2025 on 30 January 2025 in Moscone West, Room 2024 (Level 2). The talk was given by Kalliopi Spanidou.

Designing small antennas for high frequencies is challenging. Our work introduces a dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) that operates above 100 GHz.

Key Features

  • Made from micromachined silicon for precision and easy assembly.
  • Resonates at 107 GHz with a 4 GHz bandwidth.
  • Low insertion loss of -30 dB.

Future Applications

Measurements confirm that this probe can be used in compact antenna test ranges. With its omnidirectional radiation and small size, it is a strong candidate for 6G communication system testing.

We look forward to further innovations in high-frequency antennas!
