A Near Zero Refractive Index Metamaterial for Electromagnetic Invisibility Cloaking Operation
The paper reveals the design of a unit cell of a metamaterial that shows more than 2 GHz wideband near zero refractive index (NZRI) property in the C-band region of microwave spectra. The two arms of the unit cell were splitted in such a way that forms a near-pi-shape structure on epoxy resin fiber (FR-4) substrate material. The reflection and transmission characteristics of the unit cell were ...
متن کاملMicrostrip 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...
متن کاملNear - zero refractive index photonics
The control and manipulation of light on the nanoscale — the primary aim of nanophotonics — is of fundamental scientific interest and plays a key role in telecommunication technologies and energy management. Yet, because light–matter interactions are usually weak and hard to confine, they often need to be assisted by the use of suitably designed macroscopic media. For instance, the use of caref...
متن کاملSuper-reflection and Cloaking Based on Zero Index Metamaterial
A zero index metamaterial (ZIM) can be utilized to block wave (super-reflection) or conceal objects completely (cloaking). The “super-reflection” device is realized by a ZIM with a perfect electric (magnetic) conductor inclusion of arbitrary shape and size for a transverse electric (magnetic) incident wave. In contrast, a ZIM with a perfect magnetic (electric) conductor inclusion for a transver...
متن کاملAcoustic transmission line metamaterial with negative/zero/positive refractive index
A one-dimensional acoustic negative refractive index metamaterial based on the transmission line approach is presented. This structure implements the dual transmission line concept extensively investigated in microwave engineering. It consists of an acoustic waveguide periodically loaded with membranes realizing the function of series “capacitances” and transversally connected open channels rea...
