Experimental demonstration of a left-handed metamaterial operating at100GHz

Abstract: The existence of a left-handed ͑LH͒ transmission band in a bulk composite metamaterial ͑CMM͒ around 100 GHz is demonstrated experimentally. The CMM consists of stacked planar glass layers on which periodic patterns of micron-scale metallic wires and split-ring resonators are fabricated. The LH nature of the CMM band is proved by comparing the transmission spectra of individual CMM components. Theoretical investigation of the CMM by transmission simulations and an inversion scheme for the retrieval of the effec… Show more

“…The operational frequency of a given MM design is geometrically scalable to other regimes of the electromagnetic spectrum. Various MM structures have been shown to naturally couple to either the electric and / or magnetic components of light in frequency ranges from radio [14], microwave [15], mm-Wave [16], THz [13], MIR [17], NIR [18], to the near optical [19]. A great deal of effort has been exerted to create low-loss metamaterial devices such as negative index (NI) structures [15] and electromagnetic cloaks [20,21].…”

“…As expected, the transmission peak value ∼ -2.5 dB was lower than the ideal simulation result. On the other hand, by using a low-loss substrate and rather thick metal coating, we improved the ∼ -25 dB transmission peak value of our group's previous 100 GHz metamaterial demonstration [49]. Moreover, instead of photolithography techniques, we achieved the desired double-negative properties at the millimeter-wave regime by using a rather cheap technology.…”

“…Around the resonance frequency of SRRs, the transmission through this array is expected to decrease significantly due to the effective negative permeability introduced in the medium. The unit cell dimensions of the SRRs are in the order of microns to obtain a resonance around 100 GHz [5]. When the SRR array is combined with TWs as described in [8], we obtain the composite metamaterial (CMM) structure depicted in Fig.…”
