Extinction spectra of spheres made of materials having dispersive permittivity and permeability are calculated. A dispersion in the microwave region, similar to that which has recently been achieved in artificial composite media is assumed. When either the permittivity or the permeability (but not both) is negative, there occurs a band of strong surface polariton absorption. However, when both ...

This paper discusses optimization techniques for the determination of complex permittivity and permeability in transmission lines. The traditional theoretical model using scattering parameters is extended into a mathematical regression model that can be solved with widely accepted numerical techniques. This new model produces accurate primary mode results for the samples tested including nonmag...

This paper presents asymmetric three-layer slab waveguide structure in which all layers are considered left-handed materials (LHMs) with negative electric permittivity and magnetic permeability. The electric field profile is investigated in details with all parameters of the waveguide structure. Many interesting features are observed such as the existence of the fundamental mode and the transit...

L a substituted polycrystalline Y,.,LaXFe5C),2 (x 0.0 0.5) garnets were manufactured by ceramic method and the structure and magnetic properties of the garnets were studied by X-ray diffractometry, magnetometry , ferromagnetic resonance and permittivity and permeability measurement. Saturation magnetization and Curie temperature of the garnets increase slightly with increasing La content. Reson...

High permeability and high permittivity are hard to be achieved simultaneously, either in single-phased materials or in composite materials, such as ferrite-ferroelectric ceramic composites and ferrite-metal percolative composites. In this work, ultra-low percolation threshold is achieved in NiZnCu ferrite-Ag cofired ceramics, which endows the composite with both high permeability and high perm...

A generalized nonlocal effective medium theory is derived based on the transfer-matrix method to determine the nonlocal effective permittivity and permeability for the symmetric and periodic metal–dielectric multilayer metamaterials, with respect to both transverse-electric and transversemagnetic polarized light at arbitrary angle of incidence. The nonlocal effective permittivity and permeabili...
