DNA based nanostructures and advances in DNA origami techniques have shown great potential in fabrication and of nanostructures and devices. Though a large number of DNA origami structures have been reported [1-3], very few applications of DNA structures have been presented. Custom shapes formed by programmable DNA self assembly can be used to engineer nanoscale devices such as a biological antenna. The focus of our research is to design a nanoscale antenna using DNA biostructure as a scaffold. Conductivity of such a biological antenna can be achieved by using conductive nano-particles coating on DNA [4] or by attaching conducting polymers to DNA structures[5].In this paper, we will present design of engineered nano-antennas with well defined engineering characteristics. Engineered nanoantennas have a resonant frequency, that can be used for diagnostic and drug delivery. The ability of such antennas to resonate at a particular frequency will give researchers the ability to communicate and control the nanoparticles. Such nanoparticles are carriers that can be used as advanced detection systems to help identifying toxicity of nanoparticles in the body. Organic molecules, such as folic acid, can be easily bonded to the surface of antenna to detect cancerous cells. We will further discuss detailed DNA origami techniques that can be used to realize such nanostructures.

“…From the above lines we conclude that a hexagonal spiral should give approximately the same characteristics as an Archimedean spiral. The use of a square spiral antenna was suggested by Minhong [13] and Mickle [14]. However a hexagonal spiral tends to approach a circular shape better than a square spiral and hence is expected to generate better characteristics in terms of broadband gain.…”

Broadband Radio Frequency Energy Harvesting is a lucrative area of research nowadays. In this paper, we analyze various antennas for Radio Frequency Energy Harvesting in terms of broadband gain, return loss and packing conformality. Use of hexagonal spiral antenna which can provide excellent broadband characteristics without putting any bound on packing conformality is particularly emphasized. Analysis is based on simulation of various antennas using Method of Moments in IE3D Software. (Abstract)

“…Several approaches emphasize design aspects, such as polarization, number of ports, frequency bands or tones, and spatial arrangement [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. Indeed, recently, a two-port dual linearly-polarized (LP) bowtie-shaped meander dipole A FIGURE 1.…”

“…This antenna exhibited 26 µW more DC power than [15], attributed to the additional covered bands and possible CP benefits over LP. Finally, some approaches use electrically small antennas in array sets to increase the effective area and boost the harvested power through the number of harvesters over the same array size [20][21]. Besides, other approaches combined wideband or multi-band, dual-polarization, multi-port, and array sets to significantly increase the harvested power.…”
