Rogers to Feature Advanced Materials Technology, Capabilities for Antennas at IEEE AP-S
July 5, 2022 | Rogers CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Rogers Corporation will exhibit at the IEEE International Symposium on Antennas & Propagation (IEEE AP-S) in Denver, CO (Booth #400) on July 12-14.
The IEEE AP-S conference is intended to provide an international forum for the exchange of information on state-of-the-art research in antennas, propagation, electromagnetic engineering and radio science.
Key Rogers’ products being featured include:
Recently introduced Radix™ 3D Printable Dielectrics family of products, with the first available material featuring a dielectric constant of 2.8 and low loss characteristics at microwave frequencies. These printable dielectric materials give radio frequency (RF) designers unprecedented design freedom in creating new components, eliminating the need to consider typical manufacturing design constraints.
Radix 3D Printable Dielectrics are proprietary composite materials designed for the scalable manufacture of gradient index and controlled dk 3D structures, through a scalable, high-resolution printing process for end-use RF dielectric component manufacturing. Rogers Corporation’s first Radix 3D Printable Dielectric material has a targeted dielectric constant of 2.8 and a dissipation factor of 0.0043 at 10 GHz when cured.
MAGTREX® 555 High Impedance Laminates: The first commercially available low loss laminate with controlled and matched permeability and permittivity, enabling antenna designers to expand the trade-space of their antenna design, enabling design flexibility and optimization.
Rogers technical staff will be available to discuss the most demanding applications from Phase Array Radar Antennas, high frequency magneto-dielectric materials, ablative Radome materials, and metallized-shaped/3D ADM dielectric solutions.
Conference attendees can learn about “3D-Printed E-Band Gradient Dielectric Lens for Automotive and Industrial Applications” from Trevor Polidore of Rogers Corporation and Philip Lambert of 3DFortify at the 3D Printed Lens Antennas technical session on Friday July 15th starting at 3:20 p.m.

Elementary, Mr. Watson: Rein in Your Design Constraints
07/10/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonI remember the long hours spent at the light table, carefully laying down black tape to shape each trace, cutting and aligning pads with surgical precision on sheets of Mylar. I often went home with nicks on my fingers from the X-Acto knives and bits of tape all over me. It was as much an art form as it was an engineering task—tactile and methodical, requiring the patience of a sculptor. A lot has changed in PCB design over the years.
