Birefringent cadmium–telluride-based metamaterial

A Systematic Approach to Photonic Crystal Based Metamaterial Design

Photonic crystal design procedure for negative refraction has so far been based on trial and error. In this paper, for the first time, a novel and systematic design procedure based on physical and mathematical properties of photonic crystals is proposed to design crystal equi-frequency contours (EFCs) to produce negative refraction. The EFC design is performed by the help of rectangular stair-c...

Metamaterial-based wireless strain sensors

We proposed and demonstrated metamaterial-based strain sensors that are highly sensitive to mechanical deformation. Their resonance frequency shift is correlated with the surface strain of our test material and the strain data are reported telemetrically. These metamaterial sensors are better than traditional radio-frequency rf structures in sensing for providing resonances with high quality fa...

Metamaterial Based Multiple Frequency Antenna

Antennas that are electrically small, efficient and have significant bandwidth would fill many needs of new generation communications systems if antenna engineers could reconcile these usually contradictory requirements. The introduction of the so-called metamaterials (MTMs), artificial materials which have engineered electromagnetic responses that are not readily available in nature, has provi...

Metamaterial-Based Efficient Electrically Small Antennas

A metamaterial paradigm for achieving an efficient, electrically small antenna is introduced. Spherical shells of homogenous, isotropic negative permittivity (ENG) material are designed to create electrically small resonant systems for several antennas: an infinitesimal electric dipole, a very short center-fed cylindrical electric dipole, and a very short coaxially-fed electric monopole over an...
