Development of 2D ferroelectronic device technologies for neuromorphic computing, optoelectronics and memory devices

Abstract

This project aims to create conformal active holographic metasurface antennas with beam steering capabilities. By developing novel design methodologies using discrete surface impedances and Voronoi surfaces, the project expects to highly simplify the design procedure, antenna structure, and active beam-forming electronics. By using advanced aerospace compatible manufacturing, the metasurface antennas will be made fully conformal on the aerospace structures. The expected outcomes of this project will build fundamental components for the next generation multi-functional telecommunications, defence, and space electronic systems. Such antennas will potentially improve the payloads on the airborne and aerospace equipment and improve communication quality and internet access in the rural and regional areas of the world.
