Experimental verification of a negative index of refraction

RA Shelby, DR Smith, S Schultz - science, 2001 - science.org
We present experimental scattering data at microwave frequencies on a structured metamaterial
that exhibits a frequency band where the effective index of refraction (n) is negative. The …

Composite medium with simultaneously negative permeability and permittivity

DR Smith, WJ Padilla, DC Vier, SC Nemat-Nasser… - Physical review …, 2000 - APS
We demonstrate a composite medium, based on a periodic array of interspaced conducting
nonmagnetic split ring resonators and continuous wires, that exhibits a frequency region in …

Controlling electromagnetic fields

JB Pendry, D Schurig, DR Smith - science, 2006 - science.org
Using the freedom of design that metamaterials provide, we show how electromagnetic
fields can be redirected at will and propose a design strategy. The conserved fields—electric …

Determination of effective permittivity and permeability of metamaterials from reflection and transmission coefficients

DR Smith, S Schultz, P Markoš, CM Soukoulis - Physical review B, 2002 - APS
We analyze the reflection and transmission coefficients calculated from transfer matrix
simulations on finite lengths of electromagnetic metamaterials, to determine the effective …

Electromagnetic parameter retrieval from inhomogeneous metamaterials

DR Smith, DC Vier, T Koschny, CM Soukoulis - Physical review E, 2005 - APS
We discuss the validity of standard retrieval methods that assign bulk electromagnetic
properties, such as the electric permittivity ε and the magnetic permeability μ, from calculations of …

Metamaterials and negative refractive index

DR Smith, JB Pendry, MCK Wiltshire - science, 2004 - science.org
Recently, artificially constructed metamaterials have become of considerable interest,
because these materials can exhibit electromagnetic characteristics unlike those of any …

Metamaterial electromagnetic cloak at microwave frequencies

…, SA Cummer, JB Pendry, AF Starr, DR Smith - Science, 2006 - science.org
A recently published theory has suggested that a cloak of invisibility is in principle possible,
at least over a narrow frequency band. We describe here the first practical realization of such …

Terahertz magnetic response from artificial materials

TJ Yen, WJ Padilla, N Fang, DC Vier, DR Smith… - Science, 2004 - science.org
We show that magnetic response at terahertz frequencies can be achieved in a planar structure
composed of nonmagnetic conductive resonant elements. The effect is realized over a …
