This paper presents the fractal geometries and their application in the design of small, multi-band antennas. Fractals are described by means of Iteration Function System. Some useful pre-fractals were designed, numerically modeled and fabricated for applications in different modern mobile communication systems such as GSM/UMTS, WLAN, GPS, TV-Sat, etc. Experimental verifications well confirmed the results of simulation made by means of HFSS computer code.

The reduction of the dark current without reducing the photocurrent is a considerable challenge is developing far-infrared (FIR)/terahertz detectors. Since quantum dot (QD) based detectors inherently show low dark current, a QD-based structure is an appropriate choice for terahertz detectors. The work reported here discusses multi-band tunnelling quantum dot infrared photo detector (T-QDIP) structures designed for high temperature operation covering the range from mid- to far-infrared. These structures grown by molecular beam epitaxy consist of a QD (InGaAs or InAlAs) placed in a well (GaAs/AlGaAs) with a double-barrier system (AlGaAs/InGaAs/AlGaAs) adjacent to it. The photocurrent, which can be selectively collected by resonant tunnelling, is generated by a transition of carriers from the ground state in the QD to a state in the well coupled with a state in the double-barrier system. The double-barrier system blocks the majority of carriers contributing to the dark current. Several important properties of T-QDIP detectors such as the multi-colour (multi-band) nature of the photoresponse, the selectivity of the operating wavelength by the applied bias, and the polarization sensitivity of the response peaks, are also discussed.
