“…The adopted graphene monolayer offers the possibilities to actively control the directivity, and bandwidth of the patch antenna [105][106][107][108][109][110]. The graphene monolayer has also been reported to fabricate the radio frequency identification tag [111][112][113], and realize the multiple-input multiple-output antenna system with tunable beamwidth and radiation direction [114,115].…”

Graphene is an ideal 2D material system bridging electronic and photonic devices. It also breaks the fundamental speed and size limits by electronics and photonics, respectively. Graphene offers multiple functions of signal transmission, emission, modulation, and detection in a broad band, high speed, compact size, and low loss. Here, we will have a brief view of graphene based functional devices at microwave, terahertz, and optical frequencies. Their fundamental physics and computational models will be discussed as well.

In today's fast‐paced and well‐connected world, consumer electronics are evolving rapidly. As a result, the amount of discarded electronic devices is becoming a major health and environmental concern. The rapid expansion of flexible electronics has the potential to transform consumer electronic devices from rigid phones and tablets to robust wearable devices. This means increased use of plastics in consumer electronics and the potential to generate more persistent plastic waste for the environment. Hence, today, the need for flexible biodegradable electronics is at the forefront of minimizing the mounting pile of global electronic waste. A “bioadvantaged” approach to develop a biodegradable, flexible, and application‐adaptable electronic components based on crop components and graphene is reported. More specifically, by combining zein, a corn‐derived protein, and aleuritic acid, a major monomer of tomato cuticles and sheellac, along with graphene, biocomposite conductors having low electrical resistance (≈10 Ω sq−1) with exceptional mechanical and fatigue resilience are fabricated. Further, a number of high‐performance electronic applications, such as THz electromagnetic shielding, flexible GHz antenna construction, and flexible solar cell electrode, are demonstrated. Excellent performance results are measured from each application comparable to conventional nondegrading counterparts, thus paving the way for the concept of “plant‐e‐tronics” towards sustainability.

“…In contrast to the above‐mentioned subtractive technologies, additive manufacturing techniques (inkjet, screen, and 3D printing) offer extremely low cost, completely digital, and highly scalable manufacturing processes . Due to these advantages, additive manufacturing techniques have been used to realize sensors, transistors, RF inductors, RF capacitors, RF filters, RF identification (RFID) tags, and so on. There have only been a few reports on printed RF switches .…”

be reconfigured to cover them, substantial space and cost savings could be achieved.(2) The wireless standards (frequency bands of operation) vary slightly in different parts of the world. In order to have a global device that can be adjusted to varying wireless standards in different parts of the world, the RF components need to be tuned to these frequency bands. Clearly, tunable or reconfigurable RF components are in demand. This tuning is typically done through an RF switch, which is capable of blocking or allowing RF signals to pass through it based on applied stimuli.Several kinds of technologies are used for RF-switching applications, such as a PIN diode-based switch, [1,2] a microelectromechanical-systems (MEMS)-based switch, [3,4] a transistor-based switch, [5,6] ferrite-and ferro-electric-based devices, [7,8] and so on. Each has its advantages and disadvantages; for instance, PIN diode switches feature fast switching speeds and longer operation life, but they can handle only relatively low power, and also they cannot work at very low frequencies.
