Embodiment
We know, super material is a kind ofly according to what the ad hoc fashion periodic arrangement consisted of electromagnetic wave to be had the artificial composite material of special electromagnetic response by artificial micro-structural in base material.At present, super material generally is formed by stacking along the direction perpendicular to sheet surfaces by a plurality of super sheet of material, and each super sheet of material comprises the artificial micro-structural with certain topological structure that is made of wire and the base material that adheres to for artificial micro-structural.Therefore, when making radome with super material, can allow the thickness of radome increase by increasing super sheet of material, to improve the withstand voltage properties of radome.And to reduce reflection of electromagnetic wave on the interface between radome and the air, and just need to eliminate material and the sudden change of the wave impedance between the air for the manufacture of radome, also, allow the wave impedance Z of the material of making radome and the wave impedance Z of air 0Substantially equal.Generally, wave impedance Z equals , also be that the wave impedance Z of medium is relevant with relative permeability μ with its relative dielectric constant ε, and the relative dielectric constant ε of super material and relative permeability μ are determined by its artificial micro-structural.Like this, just can change by the artificial micro-structural of the super material of artificial design its relative dielectric constant ε and relative permeability μ, and make the wave impedance Z of super material and the wave impedance Z of air 0Substantially equal, when increasing, its thickness still has higher wave transparent rate to allow by the radome of super material manufacturing.
See also Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, radome of the present invention is made by super material 10, cover at antenna 20 around so that it is protected.Described super material 10 comprises the super sheet of material 12 that a plurality of edges are formed by stacking perpendicular to the direction of sheet surfaces, and each super sheet of material 12 comprises base material 14 and is attached to a plurality of artificial micro-structural 16 on the base material 14.Generally, with each artificial micro-structural 16 and accompanying base material 14 part people thereof for being defined as a super material cell 18, and the size of each super material cell 18 between the incident electromagnetic wave wavelength 1/5th to 1/10th between.So, described super material 10 just is similar to the crystal with lattice structure.
Described base material 14 can be any material, such as semi-conducting material commonly used at present, such as silicon, germanium, selenium simple substance, perhaps compounds such as GaAs, gallium phosphide, indium phosphide, cadmium sulfide, cadmium selenide, zinc telluridse, zinc sulphide, vulcanized lead, lead selenide, carborundum, silicon nitride, and any two or more the mixture in the above-mentioned material.Described artificial micro-structural 16 generally is made of wire, and it is attached on the described base material 14 by certain processing technology, such as etching, plating, brill quarter, photoetching, electronics carve, ion quarter etc.
The inside and outside both sides of radome of the present invention are air.We know, the relative dielectric constant of air and relative permeability all are slightly larger than 1, in the reality usually approximate value be 1, therefore by the formula of wave impedance:
Figure BDA0000093436950000041
Can get the wave impedance Z of air 0Be similar to 1.Like this, the wave impedance Z of described super material 10 should equate substantially with 1.And because described super material 10 comprises a plurality of super sheet of material 12 that is superimposed, therefore, we can allow the wave impedance Z of each super sheet of material 12 all when 1 equates substantially, and the wave impedance Z of described super material 10 just equates substantially with 1.
Each super sheet of material 12 comprises some super material cell 18 that matrix is arranged that are, according to the formula of wave impedance:
Figure BDA0000093436950000042
, will allow the relative dielectric constant ε of each super material cell 18 of each super sheet of material 12 substantially equate with its relative permeability μ.And because air is uniform dielectric, also be, the relative dielectric constant ε of airborne every bit is all identical with relative permeability μ, and as seen, we also can allow each super material cell 18 of each super sheet of material 12 have identical relative dielectric constant ε and identical relative permeability μ.So, just can be by computer simulation and emulation, design the topological structure of described artificial micro-structural 16, and its physical dimension modulated, utilize at last certain processing technology described base material 14 produce have emulation and topological structure and the described artificial micro-structural 16 of physical dimension, making relative dielectric constant ε and the relative permeability μ of each super material cell 18 all substantially equal, and each super material cell 18 of each super sheet of material 12 has identical relative dielectric constant ε and identical relative permeability μ.In addition, the wave impedance Z of each super sheet of material 12 both can equate, also can be unequal.Among Fig. 2 with evenly distributed and the artificial micro-structural of " I " font that physical dimension is identical as signal, the situation of arranging of the wave impedance Z that each super sheet of material 12 is described artificial micro-structural when 1 equates substantially, also namely, the relative dielectric constant ε of each super material cell 18 of each super sheet of material 12 and its relative permeability μ all equate and the situation when having respectively identical relative dielectric constant ε and identical relative permeability μ substantially.
In order to increase the thickness of radome of the present invention, we consist of described super material 10 at stackable more super sheet of material 12, to improve the withstand voltage properties of radome.
In other embodiments, the rule that the wave impedance Z of the super sheet of material 12 of each of described super material 10 can be certain changes, thereby makes described super material 10 form the super sheet of material structure of wave impedance Z gradual change.For example, the super sheet of material 12 from super sheet of material 12 beginning that contacts with air to the centre, its wave impedance Z by with the wave impedance Z of air 0(being similar to 1) equates to increase or reduce substantially.Wave impedance Z such as wantonly two of, described super material 10 adjacent super sheet of material 12 increases gradually or reduces gradually in equal difference ground each other.Certainly, also the constant super sheet of material 12 of one or more wave impedance Z can be set between the super sheet of material 12 of any two wave impedance Z gradual change, allow the wave impedance Z of each super sheet of material 12 of described super material 10 be ladder ground and increase or reduce.In addition, gradually changing of the wave impedance Z of corresponding super material cell 18 can be synchronous with other the gradually changing of wave impedance Z of corresponding super material cell 18 between each super sheet of material 12, also can be asynchronous.At this moment, just need to design respectively topological structure and the physical dimension of artificial micro-structural 16 of each super material cell 18 of each super sheet of material 12, with relative dielectric constant ε and the relative permeability μ that modulates each super material cell 18, thereby, allow the wave impedance Z of each super material cell 18 satisfy in advance design.
As from the foregoing, radome of the present invention is made by described super material 10, described super material 10 comprises a plurality of super sheet of material 12 that is superimposed, and each super sheet of material 12 comprises some super material cell 18 that are comprised of the counterpart of artificial micro-structural 16 and base material 14.By the more super sheet of material 12 that superposes, can increase the thickness of the radome of being made by described super material 10.And process the described artificial micro-structural 16 with different topology structure and physical dimension at the base material 14 of each super sheet of material 12, thereby change relative dielectric constant ε and the relative permeability μ of each the super material cell 18 on each super sheet of material 12, make the wave impedance Z of each super sheet of material 12 of described super material 10 substantially equal, the wave impedance Z of the super sheet of material 12 that contacts with air and the wave impedance Z of air 0(being similar to 1) is substantially equal, eliminated between air and the adjacent super sheet of material 12 and the middle in twos sudden change of the wave impedance Z between the adjacent super sheet of material 12, when reducing electromagnetic wave and inciding on the radome of being made by described super material 10 from air, when between each super sheet of material 12 of described super material 10, propagating and when transmiting described super material 10 and entering air owing to occuring to reflect and consume.Also namely, radome of the present invention has improved withstand voltage properties by increasing its thickness, and by allowing each super sheet of material 12 of described super material 10 and the wave impedance Z between the air be complementary, to reduce reflection, has improved its wave transparent ability.
In addition, as shown in Figure 3, when penetrating super material among Fig. 2 for the electromagnetic wave of different frequency, the curvilinear motion figure of its relative dielectric constant.As seen from the figure, when the electromagnetic wave of a lot of frequency ranges penetrated super material, super material all had lower relative dielectric constant.Also namely, the radome of being made by described super material 10 has good wideband effect.In the present embodiment, the relative dielectric constant ε of the super material that we choose≤10, preferred ε=6-7.
In the embodiment of radome of the present invention mentioned " substantially equal " refer to equate and the foundation floating that equates is moving is no more than ± 10%.
The above only is some embodiments of the present invention and/or embodiment, should not be construed as limiting the invention.For those skilled in the art, under the prerequisite that does not break away from basic thought of the present invention, can also make some distortion and improvement, such as, radome of the present invention is in the uniform dielectric that is used in such as air in above-mentioned embodiment.In addition; it also can be used in the non-uniform dielectric; at this moment; just the wave impedance of each super material cell of the super sheet of material of needs transference non-uniform dielectric contact all equates substantially with the wave impedance of non-uniform dielectric relevant position; the wave impedance of corresponding super material cell is substantially equal mutually on middle each super sheet of material; be as the criterion with the sudden change that wave impedance does not occur, and these distortion and improvement also should be considered as protection scope of the present invention.
