چکیده

We investigate the problem of designing metamaterial structures which operate at very low frequencies. As an example, we consider the case of a DC magnetic cloak, which requires a variable, anisotropic magnetic permeability with both paramagnetic and diamagnetic components. We show that a structure based on superconducting components is the key to diamagnetism at low frequencies, and present a metamaterial design which meets the requirements of the cloak.

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...

Quasi-static stop band with flexural metamaterial having zero rotational stiffness

Metamaterials realizing stop bands have attracted much attentions recently since they can break-through the well-known mass law. However, achieving the stop band at extremely low frequency has been still a big challenge in the fields of elastic metamaterials. In this paper, we propose a new metamaterial based on the idea of the zero rotational stiffness, to achieve extremely low frequency stop ...

Lensing system and Fourier transformation using epsilon-near-zero metamaterials

Metamaterials and metastructures with effective relative permittivity near zero exhibit unusual wave properties such as uniform phase distributions across such domains. Here we discuss the possibility of using εnear-zero (ENZ) metamaterials for lensing and Fourier transforming. Owing to the possibility of having ENZ metamaterials in different wavelength regimes, the concepts shown here can be u...

Loss-induced Enhanced Transmission in Anisotropic Density-near-zero Acoustic Metamaterials

Anisotropic density-near-zero (ADNZ) acoustic metamaterials are investigated theoretically and numerically in this paper and are shown to exhibit extraordinary transmission enhancement when material loss is induced. The enhanced transmission is due to the enhanced propagating and evanescent wave modes inside the ADNZ medium thanks to the interplay of near-zero density, material loss, and high w...

Diffraction-free optical beam propagation with near-zero phase variation in extremely anisotropic metamaterials

Extremely anisotropic metal-dielectric multilayer metamaterials are designed to have the effective permittivity tensor of a transverse component (parallel to the interfaces of the multilayer) with zero real part and a longitudinal component (normal to the interfaces of the multilayer) with ultra-large imaginary part at the same wavelength, including the optical nonlocality analysis based on the...

Microwave birefringent metamaterials for polarization conversion based on spoof surface plasmon polariton modes

We propose the design of wideband birefringent metamaterials based on spoof surface plasmon polaritons (SSPPs). Spatial k-dispersion design of SSPP modes in metamaterials is adopted to achieve high-efficiency transmission of electromagnetic waves through the metamaterial layer. By anisotropic design, the transmission phase accumulation in metamaterials can be independently modulated for x- and ...
