What should be the size of an NFC antenna given an operating distance?

I am dealing with a project about a PCB with NFC antenna. We are designing PCB now. Do anyone know about the size of an NFC antenna if we want it operate in 10 centimeters?

NFC Type 4 can operate within a distance of 10 centimeters. NFC, which is compatible with ISO 15693 that is capable of  NFC phones, can operate within a distance of 100 centimeters.    

The size of an NFC antenna is related to

  • The antenna size at the tag.
  • The size of the antenna at the NFC reader.

Why the PCB is cold, but LED bulbs are still hot?

I have a THERMAL problem when designing a power LED ALUMINUM PCB. I have 10 5W UV power LEDs.Coldwater flows through water heat sink continuously. The problem is the PCB is cold, but LED bulbs are still hot? Can anyone give me some advice.

What is the difference between a prototype PCB and a production PCB?

My project have gone through from design, prototype to mass production after lots of discussion and adjustment. Now the manufacturer are making our products in their product lines. And I would like to know is there any differences between the prototypes in my hand now and the final products output by the manufacturer?

What will be the role of a copper layer in a metal core PCB in thermal dissipation?

In the design of a power electronic PCB, I want to use a metal PCB for heat dissipation of a TO-220 package MOSFET. To do that I want to mount metal PCB on the MOSFET with the use of thermal paste and screw exactly like we do when we use heatsink for the same package. Should I leave the copper of PCB between MOSFET surface and dielectric of PCB or remove the copper surface and leave only the dielectric opening?
