  • Patent number: 11960051
    Abstract: Various embodiments may provide a method of fabricating a meta-lens structure. The method may include forming a first dielectric layer in contact with a silicon wafer. The method may also include forming a second dielectric layer in contact with the first dielectric layer. A refractive index of the second dielectric layer may be different from a refractive index of the first dielectric layer. The method may further include, in patterning the second dielectric layer. The method may additionally include removing at least a portion of the silicon wafer to expose the first dielectric layer.

  • Publication number: 20240080049
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein include methods and apparatus for dynamically selecting antenna settings for reception of wireless signals in multiple radio frequency band by wireless devices. A wireless device includes at least two SIM/eSIM profiles that each use different radio frequency bands and dynamically selects an antenna tuner setting based on requirements of one or more applications in use and key radio frequency performance indicators. In some embodiments, the antenna hardware tuner setting is selected to improve paging reception for a secondary SIM/eSIM from a second cellular wireless network when applications communicating using a first SIM/eSIM via a first cellular wireless network can accommodate performance degradation for a period of time.
