Losses for microwave transmission in metamaterials for producing left-handed materials: The strip wires
This letter shows that the effective permittivity e for those metamaterials so far used to obtain a left-handed medium, consisting of 0.003 cm thick Cu strip wires, is dominated by the imaginary part of e at 10.6–11.5 GHz frequencies. This is the region of a bandpass filter for microwaves, and therefore there is no propagation since the wave is inhomogeneous inside the medium. We compare with r...
متن کاملTransmission losses in left-handed materials.
We numerically analyze the origin of the transmission losses in left-handed structures. Our data confirms that left-handed structures can have very good transmission properties, in spite of the expectable dispersion of their effective permeability and refraction index. The large permittivity of the metallic components improves the transmission. High losses, observed in recent experiments, could...
متن کاملLosses in left-handed materials.
Interest in negative refractive index, or left-handed (LH) materials, has escalated rapidly over the last few years and it now appears that useful LH materials may be realizable in the microwave region. However there is also considerable interest in LH materials for infrared and visible applications. The purpose of this paper is to explore the limitations of LH materials at short wavelengths du...
متن کاملAn efficient way to reduce losses of left-handed metamaterials.
We propose a simple and effective way to reduce the losses in left-handed metamaterials by manipulating the values of the effective parameters R, L, and C. We investigate the role of losses of the short-wire pairs and the fishnet structures. Increasing the effective inductance to capacitance ratio, L/C, reduces the losses and the figure of merit can increase substantially, especially at THz fre...
متن کاملNonlinear Left-Handed Metamaterials
Metamaterials are artificial structures that are designed to exhibit specific electromagnetic properties required for different applications but not commonly found in nature. The methodology of synthesizing materials composed of microand nano-structured components that mimic the electromagnetic response of individual atoms and molecules (meta-atoms and meta-molecules) has proven to be very prod...
