Abstract

An electronic modulating device is provided. The electronic modulating device includes a first substrate. The first substrate includes a first portion and a second portion. The electronic modulating device also includes a second substrate disposed opposite to the first substrate. The electronic modulating device further includes at least one working device disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the working device overlaps the first portion and does not overlap the second portion. In addition, the electronic modulating device includes a first adjustment unit disposed between the first portion of the first substrate and the second substrate. The first adjustment unit has a first elastic coefficient. The electronic modulating device also includes second adjustment unit disposed between the second portion of the first substrate and the second substrate. The second adjustment unit has a second elastic coefficient that is greater than the first elastic coefficient.

Claims (18)

1. An antenna, comprising:

a first substrate comprising a first portion and a second portion;

a second substrate disposed opposite to the first substrate;

at least one working device disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the at least one working device overlaps the first portion and does not overlap the second portion;

a first adjustment unit disposed between the first portion of the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the first adjustment unit has a first elastic coefficient;

a second adjustment unit disposed between the second portion of the first substrate and the second substrate; and

a plurality of third adjustment units disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the first adjustment unit is disposed between two of the plurality of third adjustment units and the second adjustment unit is disposed between another two of the plurality of third adjustment units in a cross-sectional view;

wherein the second adjustment unit has a second elastic coefficient, at least one of the plurality of third adjustment units has a third elastic coefficient, and the first elastic coefficient is less than the second elastic coefficient, the third elastic coefficient is greater than the second elastic coefficient.

2. The antenna according to claim 1 , wherein a distance between the second portion of the first substrate and the second substrate is greater than a distance between the first portion of the first substrate and the second substrate.

3. The antenna according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a working region and a non-working region, wherein the second adjustment unit is disposed on the non-working region.

4. The antenna according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a working region and a non-working region, wherein the first adjustment unit is disposed on the working region.

5. The antenna according to claim 1 , wherein a material of the first adjustment unit is different from a material of the second adjustment unit.

6. The antenna according to claim 1 , wherein the first adjustment unit comprises a plurality of first spacers, the second adjustment unit comprises a plurality of second spacers, and a number of the plurality of first spacers per unit area is less than a number of the plurality of second spacers per unit area.

7. The antenna according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a modulating material layer disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the modulating material layer fills a gap between the first adjustment unit and the second adjustment unit.

8. The antenna according to claim 1 , wherein a material of the first adjustment unit and the second adjustment unit comprises photoresist.
