Determining the Effective Electromagnetic Parameters of Bianisotropic Metamaterials with Periodic Structures
نویسندگان
چکیده
A straightforward approach is proposed to retrieve the effective electromagnetic parameters of a slab of bianisotropic material from the scattering parameters. We first obtain the values of the impedance and refractive index of a slab of metamaterial, followed by the deduction of the expressions for determining these electromagnetic parameters including permittivity, permeability and magnetoelectric coupling coefficient. Then, comparisons between the results coming respectively from retrieval technique and analytical method are made. Finally, we demonstrate the properties of split-ring resonator materials in other two orientations with respect to the incident plane wave and apply the proposed method to anisotropic materials to reveal its generality.

Bianisotropic response of microfabricated metamaterials in the terahertz region
Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy was used to investigate the bianisotropic response of microfabricated split-ring resonators (SRRs) and the in-plane SRR–wire metamaterials. We observed a strong polarization dependence of the transmission with a polarized incident terahertz electromagnetic wave. Two transmission minima, one from the bianisotropic contribution and the other from the anisotropic...
متن کاملControlling THz and far-IR waves with chiral and bianisotropic metamaterials
Chiral and bianisotropic metamaterials, where coupling of magnetic and electric phenomena plays an important role, offer advanced possibilities for the control and manipulation of electromagnetic waves. Such a control is particularly useful in the THz and far-IR region where natural materials do not show strong response and thus they are not offered as components for a direct realization of ele...
متن کاملDetermination of the effective constitutive parameters of bianisotropic metamaterials from reflection and transmission coefficients.
We propose a method to retrieve the effective constitutive parameters of a slab of bianisotropic metamaterial from reflection and transmission coefficients (or scattering parameters). In our retrieval method, only the scattering parameters in one propagation direction are used. Analytical inversion equations are derived in order to retrieve the effective parameters of the permittivity, permeabi...

We discuss a simple first-principles homogenization theory for describing, in the long-wavelength limit, the effective bianisotropic response of a periodic metamaterial composite without intrinsic chiral and magnetic inclusions. In the case where the dielectric contrast is low, we obtain a full analytical description which can be considered the extension of Landau-Lifshitz-Looyenga effective-me...
متن کاملDescription and explanation of electromagnetic behaviors in artificial metamaterials based on effective medium theory.
We present a general theory of effective media to set up the relationship between the particle responses and the macroscopic system behaviors for artificial metamaterials composed of periodic resonant structures. By treating the unit cell of the periodic structure as a particle, we define the average permittivity and permeability for different unit structures and derive a general form of discre...
