"Antenna can be one of the largest components in a wireless device; therefore antenna miniaturization can reduce the overall size of wireless devices. One method used to reduce the element size of an antenna is by using meta material structures. This paper discusses a Left-Handed Meta material (LHM) structure stacked on a two-element microstrip antennas array for miniaturization and gain enhancement at a frequency of 2.35 GHz. To observe the impact of the LHM structure on the antenna, first this paper discuss the design of a conventional rectangular shape microstrip antenna without a LHM structure, then a design of the LHM structure which shows both negative permittivity and negative permeability. This LHM structure is then implemented on a conventional single element microstrip antenna and on a two-element microstrip antennas array. Results and discussion of implementation of the LHM structure on the conventional microstrip antenna is provided in this paper. The results show that good agreement between simulated and measured results has been achieved. The simulation results show that the antenna works at a frequency of 2.29–2.42 GHz with a bandwidth of 128 MHz (5.4%) and a gain of 8.2 dBi, while the measurements show that the antenna works at a frequency of 2.26–2.41 GHz with a bandwidth of 146 MHz (6.21%) and a gain of 8.97 dBi. In addition, by comparing the substrate dimension for the two element array antennas, with and without the LHM structure, shows a 39% reduction is achieved."

"A greater heat load due to the miniaturization of electronic products causes the need for a new cooling system that works more efficiently and has a high thermal capacity. A synthetic jet is potentially useful for the cooling of electronic components. This paper reports the results of our experimental studies and the influence of orifice shape for Impinging Synthetic Jet cooling perfomance. The effect of shape of the orifice of an impinging synthetic jet assembly on the apparatus cooling of a heated surface is experimentally investigated. It will be seen that the characteristics of convective heat transfer will occur by moving the piezoelectric membrane. The prototype of the synthetic jet actuator is coupled with two piezoelectric membranes that operate by 5 volt electrical current and create a sinusoidal wave. The orifice shapes considered are square and circular. The results show the significant influence of orifice shape and sinusoidal wave frequencies on the heat transfer rate that were obtained. The temperature drop with a square orifice is found to be larger than that with circular shapes. A square orifice has a larger covered area if compared to the circular orifice at the same radius, thus resulting in a larger entrainment rate that leads to an increase of heat transfer performance."
