Abstract
A new method for reconfigurable antenna design, based on the unique properties of phase-change materials, is presented. A reconfigurable bowtie antenna prototype utilizing Vanadium Dioxide (VO2) was designed, fabricated, and measured. The antenna is functional and changes its resonant frequency with temperature, as intended. This proof-of-concept device is successful and can lead to more designs and devices that employ phase-change materials as their main reconfiguration method.
