We report free space transmission and the first reflection measurements of a composite double negative (DNG) metamaterial, also known as a left-handed material (LHM). The metamaterial composes of the split-ring-resonators and discontinuous thin wires. Very high transmission values of the metamaterial are observed within a frequency range for which both effective permeability and permittivity ar...

The characteristics of plasmonic resonance in a dielectric-sandwiched metamaterial film at visible wavelengths of 650 and 568 nm have been investigated (for both p- and s-polarized light). Our calculated results demonstrate that each mode of plasmonic resonance has maximum resonance strength at a particular film thickness of the metamaterial. We also demonstrated that the effect of evanescent f...

Dual band metamaterial perfect absorbers with two absorption bands are highly desirable because of their potential application areas such as detectors, transceiver system, and spectroscopic imagers. However, most of these dual band metamaterial absorbers proposed were based on resonances of metal patterns. Here, we numerically and experimentally demonstrate a dual band metamaterial perfect abso...

We report the design, fabrication, and measurement of a terahertz metamaterial composed of single geometry electric field coupled resonators that has two closely spaced electric resonances near 1.0 and 1.5 THz. Due to the mutual coupling between the different resonances in the particle, the lower frequency resonance of this metamaterial is stronger than that in a metamaterial composed of identi...

─ The reduction of electromagnetic (EM) absorption with metamaterial is performed by the finite-difference time-domain method with lossyDrude model by CST Microwave Studio in this paper. The metamaterials can be achieved by arranging split ring resonators (SRRS) periodically. The SAR value has been observed by varying the distances between head model to phone model, different distance, differen...

We present the design, characterization, and experimental verification of broadband and tunable metamaterials based on reconfigurable fluid channels. We demonstrate through simulation that a finite-height cylinder of water in a background medium behaves as a nonresonant metamaterial. By changing liquid type or adjusting liquid level, we tune the effective material parameters of the metamaterial...

Practical design parameters of resonant metamaterials, such as loss tangent, are derived in terms of the quality factor Q of the resonant effective medium permeability or permittivity. Through electromagnetic simulations of loopbased resonant particles, it is also shown that the Q of the effective medium response is essentially equal to the Q of an individual resonant particle. Thus, by measuri...

In this contribution, we present the procedure employed by our research group to go from metamaterial-based to metamaterial-inspired miniaturized antennas. The concepts of microwave metamaterial-based and metamaterialinspired antennas and components are firstly reviewed. Then, we address the main issues to tackle when going from metamaterial-based to metamaterial-inspired miniaturized antennas....

We report the experimental demonstration of a broadband negative refractive index obtained in a labyrinthine acoustic metamaterial structure. Two different approaches were employed to prove the metamaterial negative index nature: one-dimensional extractions of effective parameters from reflection and transmission measurements and two-dimensional prism-based measurements that convincingly show t...

This paper propose a new generation of antenna that applies Metamaterial properties at ground Plane. Paper also analyzed the performance of Microstrip Patch Antenna with and without using the Metamaterial structure. The works mainly include Metamaterial as Defected ground plane. All antenna parameters such as Return Loss, Gain, VSWR and Band width were measured. The main focus of this paper was...
