Abstract

In this paper, the transmission properties of three 1-row periodic rod arrays, namely perfect conductor array, copper array with surface conductivity and single wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) array with quantum conductivity, are investigated. MoM with special algorithms of Toeplitz matrices is employed. It is found that, due to the quantum effects, SWCNT array can transmit energy in a lower frequency and has broader passband. After that, the transmission properties of multi-row SWCNT array have been analyzed. Numerical results reveal that multi-row structure of SWCNT can improve the transmission efficiency.
