Considering this significant resemblance of optical antennas to their RF counterparts, it has been demonstrated that the computational tools of patch antennas in RF, namely the cavity model, can be employed with some modifications in the optical regime.Electrical electronics engineeringOpticsOptical patch antennas-analysis and design inspired by radio frequencyConference proceedinghttps://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85085780093&doi=10.1364%2ffio.2013.ftu5d.6&partnerID=40&md5=c2d50e983eb0cc8c6a26a92b28210d0b8843
