Metamaterials with Negative Parameters: Theory, Design, and Microwave Applications

By Ferran Martín, Mario Sorolla, Ricardo Marqués

Book Overview

The first general textbook to offer a complete overview ofmetamaterial theory and its microwave applications

Metamaterials with Negative Parameters represents theonly unified treatment of metamaterials available in one convenientbook. Devoted mainly to metamaterials that can be characterized bya negative effective permittivity and/or permeability, the bookincludes a wide overview of the most important topics, scientificfundamentals, and technical applications of metamaterials.

Chapter coverage includes: the electrodynamics of left-handedmedia, synthesis of bulk metamaterials, synthesis of metamaterialsin planar technology, microwave applications of metamaterialconcepts, and advanced and related topics, including SRR- andCSRR-based admittance surfaces, magneto- and electro-inductivewaves, and sub-diffraction imaging devices. A list of problems andreferences is included at the end of each chapter, and abibliography offers a complete, up-to-daterepresentation of thecurrent state of the art in metamaterials.

Geared toward students and professionals alike, Metamaterialswith Negative Parameters is an ideal textbook for postgraduatecourses and also serves as a valuable introductory reference forscientists and RF/microwave engineers.
