B1. Nanotechnology in RF and microwave applications: Review article

In this paper detailed discussions are introduced for possible applications of nanotechnology and nano-materials in RF, microwave and optical applications. The proposed discussions include different nano-materials like carbon nanotube, graphene sheets, nanowires, nano-particles of noble metals like Ag and Au, and nano-ferrite materials. On the other hand, the proposed applications include nano-antennas, passive microwave circuits, microwave transistors, flexible conducting sheets, RF conducting ink, RF absorbers and RF shielding.
