Abstract

We analyse the resonance conditions of a long and narrow ribbon of finite length whether it is conductive or dielectric. This is accomplished by using a full wave approach based on the material independent modes that naturally discriminates the role of the geometry and of the material. This method effectively allows the design of the material in such a way to obtain the desired resonances. Eventually, as an example, we design two quasi-one dimensional resonators based on a graphene layer and on a silicon thin film.
