Microstrip Antenna Gain Enhancement using Near Zero Refractive Index Metamaterials
Some useful features of microstrip patch antennas are low profile, low weight and easy fabrication. However this type of antenna suffers from having a low gain, caused by propagation surface waves. In this paper, a new near zero refractive index metamaterial (MTM) unit cell is designed and fabricated as a superstrate over a Rectangular Microstrip Patch Antennas (RMPA). In order to obtain a maxi...
متن کاملManipulating polarization of light with ultrathin epsilon-near-zero metamaterials.
One of the basic functionalities of photonic devices is the ability to manipulate the polarization state of light. Polarization components are usually implemented using the retardation effect in natural birefringent crystals and, thus, have a bulky design. Here, we have demonstrated the polarization manipulation of light by employing a thin subwavelength slab of metamaterial with an extremely a...

متن کاملSlow Light in “Zero Thickness” Metamaterials
We show for the first time that a classical analogue of EIT can be realized in “zero thickness” planar metamaterials (meta-surfaces) resulting in substantial delay of propagating electromagnetic pulses. @2008 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (160.3918) Metamaterials; (260.2030) Dispersion Here we demonstrate that a classical analogue of EIT can be implemented by appropriately patterning o...
متن کاملOptical isolation with epsilon-near-zero metamaterials.
We suggest a principle for isolation of circularly polarized waves in magnetically active extreme-parameter metamaterials. Using theoretical analysis and numerical simulations, we show that metamaterials with extreme parameters, such as epsilon-near-zero materials (ENZ), when merged with magneto-optical materials, become transparent for forward circularly polarized waves of a given handedness a...
