Abstract

The invention provides a graphene-based optical carrier microwave antenna, which is composed of a metal grounding plate, an insulating dielectric layer, a metal structure layer, a graphene film patchand an optical waveguide. The metal structure layer comprises a microstrip connecting line, an impedance matching transmission line and a radiation patch. According to the antenna, when signal light irradiates the graphene patch, the conductivity of graphene is changed along with the intensity of the signal light, so that an optical signal is converted into a microwave radiation signal. Accordingto the antenna, the optical adjustability of the graphene is utilized, the high electron mobility of the graphene and the resonance property of the metal antenna structure are combined, optical signals can be directly converted into microwave signals without photoelectric signal conversion, the hardware structure is simple, the speed is high, the size is small, and the antenna can be applied to high-speed wireless communication.
