Effective Medium Theory of Left-Handed Materials
Effective Medium Theory of Left-Handed Materials
We analyze the transmission and reflection data obtained through transfer matrix calculations on metamaterials of finite lengths, to determine their effective permittivity $ϵ$ and permeability $\ensuremath{\mu}$. Our study concerns metamaterial structures composed of periodic arrangements of wires, cut wires, split ring resonators (SRRs), closed SRRs, and both wires and SRRs. …
