Electromagnetic energy in a dispersive metamaterial
نویسندگان
چکیده
An expression for the electromagnetic field energy density in a dispersive, lossy, lefthanded metamaterial, consisting of an array of split-ring resonators and an array of wires is derived. An electromagnetic field with general time-dependence is considered. The outcome is compared with previously published results. In the absence of losses, agreement with the general result for the energy density in a dispersive material is obtained. The formulae are verified using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) numerical method. The applicability of two commonly used permeability models to the problem of calculating the energy stored in an array of split-ring resonators is discussed.

Radiation Enhancement and Radiation Suppression by a Left-handed Metamaterial
The perfect lens property of a dispersive and lossy lefthanded metamaterial disk is exploited to superimpose a source of electromagnetic radiation onto its mirror image, formed as a result of reflection from a perfect electric conductor or a perfect magnetic conductor. The superposition of a vertical wire-dipole antenna with its perfect electric conductor image results in an increase of the rad...
متن کاملPower loss and electromagnetic energy density in a dispersive metamaterial medium.
The power loss and electromagnetic energy density of a metamaterial consisting of arrays of wires and split-ring resonators are investigated. We show that a field energy density formula can be derived consistently from both the electrodynamic (ED) approach and the equivalent circuit (EC) approach. The derivations are based on the knowledge of the dynamical equations of the electric and magnetic...

The proposed theorem in this paper is indicative of a kind of duality in the propagation of waves in the dual media of and in the spherical structures. Independent of wave frequency, the number of layers, their thickness, and the type of polarization, this theorem holds true in case of any change in any of these conditions. Theorem: Consider a plane wave incident on a multilayered spheric...
