Abstract

See full text

There are disclosed various apparatuses and methods for tuning a resonance frequency. In some embodiments there is provided an apparatus (200) comprising at least one input electrode (202, 204) for receiving radio frequency signals; a graphene foil (210) for converting at least part of the radio frequency signals into mechanical energy; at least one dielectric support element (212) to support the graphene foil (210) and to space apart the at least one input electrode (202, 204) and the graphene foil (210). The graphene foil (210) has piezoelectric properties. In some embodiments there is provided a method comprising receiving radio frequency signals by at least one input electrode (202, 204) of an apparatus (200); providing a bias voltage to the apparatus (200) for tuning the resonance frequency of the apparatus (200); and converting at least part of the radio frequency signals into mechanical energy by a graphene foil (210) having piezoelectric properties.
