Abstract: Provide is an LC resonant antenna including: an inductor layer provided with a coil-shaped inductor; and a capacitor layer provided with a capacitor and laminated on the inductor layer. The capacitor includes a plurality of electrode plates that are aligned with the inductor in a laminating direction of the inductor layer and the capacitor layer and that extend in a surface direction orthogonal to the laminating direction. The inductor is formed to have an axis of a coil center extending in a direction that coincides or substantially coincides with the laminating direction. The plurality of electrode plates each have a passage area that corresponds in the laminating direction to an internal area surrounded by the inductor and allows magnetic flux to pass therethrough.
Abstract: Provided is an LC resonant antenna including: an inductor layer provided with a coil-shaped inductor; and a capacitor layer laminated on the inductor layer in a direction of an axis along a coil center of the inductor. The capacitor layer includes a capacitor connected to the inductor. The capacitor includes a pair of electrode plates arranged in parallel at a distance from each other in a laminating direction.
Abstract: The present invention aims to provide an RFID tag capable of improving antenna efficiency with a simple configuration. Such an RFID tag includes: an antenna configured with a reader/writer; an IC chip to which the antenna is connected; a plurality of connection terminals inside outer peripheral edges of an insulating layer on which the antenna is formed; and an annular antenna-forming area on the entire periphery or substantially the entire periphery of the insulating layer. The antenna is formed into a loop in the antenna-forming area, with one of the plurality of connection terminals serving as a starting point and with one of the remaining connection terminals serving as an endpoint.
Abstract: An antenna of the present invention includes a laminate body including a conductor core, an insulator layer, and a conductor pattern. The conductor pattern is a conductor layer formed of a conducting body disposed on a radially outer side of the insulator layer. The conductor core and the conductor pattern are connected to each other in such a manner that a current is made to flow in a direction from the conductor core to the conductor pattern or in a direction opposite thereto so as to coincide with a power supply direction.
