Abstract The broadband digital phase shifters are valuable for the modern phase array antennas. Under balanced condition, composite right/left‐handed transmission line (CRLH TL) is broadband because of its unique hyperbolic‐linear dispersion relations. A broadband 4‐bit digital phase shifter based on the broadband pro…

The orientational ordering of the nematic phase of a polyethylene glycol (PEG)-peptide block copolymer in aqueous solution is probed by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), with the sample subjected to steady shear in a Couette cell. The PEG-peptide conjugate forms fibrils that behave as semiflexible rodlike chains.…

Abstract Coagents are vinyl monomers that react with free radicals formed by peroxide dissociation and are either grafted to elastomer chains or homopolymerized within a segregated phase to form a crosslinked network. The initial phase distribution within the elastomer matrix is of great importance for the final user…
