Metamaterial band theory: fundamentals & applications

A New Wide-Band Double-Negative Metamaterial for C- and S-Band Applications

A new design and analysis of a wide-band double-negative metamaterial, considering a frequency range of 0.5 to 7 GHz, is presented in this paper. Four different unit cells with varying design parameters are analyzed to evaluate the effects of the unit-cell size on the resonance frequencies of the metamaterial. Moreover, open and interconnected 2 × 2 array structures of unit cells are analyzed. ...

Metamaterial Properties and Applications

This paper discusses fundamental properties of metamaterials. It also discuss the recent research activities on metamaterials in various areas such as antenna design, design of high frequency components & devices, microwave engineering etc. The metamaterials are engineered media whose electromagnetic responses are different from those of their constituent components. Here general advantages of ...

Compact triple-band metamaterial inspired monopole antennas

Here we present a comparison analysis on the single loop resonator (SLR) inspired triple-band monopole antennas. Two configurations with rectangular and circular shaped radiation patches are presented. Simultaneously, two feed techniques with coplanar waveguide and microstrip feeds are performed to drive the antennas. And the conventional planar monopole antennas without the SLRs are also analy...

Band Gaps in a Multiresonator Acoustic Metamaterial

In this study, we investigated dispersion curves and the band gap structure of a multiresonator mass-in-mass lattice system. The unit cell of the lattice system consists of three separate masses connected by linear springs. It was demonstrated that the band gaps can be shifted by varying the spring constant and the magnitude of the internal masses. By using the conventional monatomic (single ma...
