Wide-band negative permeability of nonlinear metamaterials
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a novel way to achieve an exceptionally wide frequency range where metamaterial possesses negative effective permeability. This can be achieved by employing a nonlinear response of metamaterials. We demonstrate that, with an appropriate design, a frequency band exceeding 100% is available for a range of signal amplitudes. Our proposal provides a significant improvement over the linear approach, opening a road towards broadband negative refraction and its applications.

Left-handed materials composed of only S-shaped resonators.
We analyze an S-shaped inclusion for the realization of metamaterials exhibiting left-handed properties. Unlike most of the conventional inclusions used so far that are composed of two separate geometries-typically a split ring and a rod-the inclusion proposed in this paper is made of only one S-shaped element which yields an overlapping negative permittivity and negative permeability response ...
متن کاملGap solitons in metamaterials
Electromagnetic localization and existence of gap solitons in nonlinear metamaterials, which exhibit a stop band in their linear spectral response, is theoretically investigated. For a self-focusing Kerr nonlinearity, the equation for the electric field envelope with carrier frequency in the stop band where the magnetic permeability μ(ω) is positive and the dielectric permittivity ǫ(ω) is negat...
متن کاملTopology and Design of Wide-Band 3D Metamaterials made of Periodically Loaded Transmission Line Arrays
We propose a new topology for realizing artificial microwave materials that exhibit a negative refractive index over a wide frequency band. These metamaterials consist of a threedimensional transmission line mesh that is loaded with reactive series and shunt elements to create negative permittivity and permeability. The cubic-cell transmission line host network is a physical realization of the ...
متن کاملSpatial solitons in nonlinear left-handed metamaterials
We predict that left-handed metamaterials with nonlinear response can support both TEand TM-polarized self-trapped localized beams, or spatial electromagnetic solitons. Such solitons appear as singleand multi-hump beams, being either symmetric or antisymmetric, and they are modified dramatically by the hysteresis-type magnetic nonlinearity and the effective domains of negative magnetic permeabi...
متن کاملDoubly Negative Metamaterials
In 1967 Veselago considered the possibility of materials with (relative) permittivity and (relative) permeability μ both negative [1]. Building on the long history of artifical dielectrics for high-frequency applications (see, for example, [2, 3, 4]), in 1999 Pendry et al. proposed a technique for fabrication of metamaterials with both negative and negative μ within a certain frequency range [5...
