Résumé

Light scattering by an array of alternating electric and magnetic nanoparticles is analyzed in detailed. Specific geometrical conditions are derived, where such an array behaves like double-negative particles, leading to a suppression of the backscattered intensity. This effect is very robust and could be used to produce double-negative metamaterials using single-negative components. (C)2010 Optical Society of America

Negative-index metamaterial

Negative-index metamaterial or negative-index material (NIM) is a metamaterial whose refractive index for an electromagnetic wave has a negative value over some frequency range. NIMs are constructed of periodic basic parts called unit cells, which are usually significantly smaller than the wavelength of the externally applied electromagnetic radiation. The unit cells of the first experimentally investigated NIMs were constructed from circuit board material, or in other words, wires and dielectrics.

Photonic metamaterial

A photonic metamaterial (PM), also known as an optical metamaterial, is a type of electromagnetic metamaterial, that interacts with light, covering terahertz (THz), infrared (IR) or visible wavelengths. The materials employ a periodic, cellular structure. The subwavelength periodicity distinguishes photonic metamaterials from photonic band gap or photonic crystal structures. The cells are on a scale that is magnitudes larger than the atom, yet much smaller than the radiated wavelength, are on the order of nanometers.

Métamatériau

En physique, en électromagnétisme, le terme métamatériau désigne un matériau composite artificiel qui présente des propriétés électromagnétiques qu'on ne retrouve pas dans un matériau naturel. Il s'agit en général de structures périodiques, diélectriques ou métalliques, qui se comportent comme un matériau homogène n'existant pas à l'état naturel. Il existe plusieurs types de métamatériaux en électromagnétisme, les plus connus étant ceux susceptibles de présenter à la fois une permittivité et une perméabilité négatives.

Enabling Wide Bandwidth in Substrate-Integrated Waveguide Slot Antennas by Using Low-Index Metamaterials

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Jalaledin Tayebpour, Amir Jafargholi

This paper presents a solution to overcome the inherently limited bandwidth of substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) slot antennas. It is analytically shown that by decreasing the permittivity of a dielectric loaded slot antenna, the resulting bandwidth inc ...
