Abstract:
A single-sided structure left-handed metamaterial (LHM), of which the symmetric paired split-ring resonators are connected directly through cut wires, is discussed in this paper. This connected single-sided LHM can exhibit a low loss and broad negative refraction passband. Good agreement of the retrieved result and the simulated result verify the above conclusion by comparison with the in-plane case and the off-plane case [T. Koschny, M. Kafesaki, E. N. Economou, and C. M. Soukoulis, Phys. Rev. Lett. 93, 107402 (2004)].

Boundary Conditions: Lossless Lines
At the receiving end, the boundary condition states that the voltage equals the product of the receiving-end impedance and current. This relationship is expressed as a function of the incident and...
Lossy Lines and Overvoltages
Attenuation
When constant series resistance and shunt conductance are present, voltage and current equations are modified. The propagation constant indicates that voltage and current waves consist of both forward and backward traveling components. These waves attenuate as they propagate, with the attenuation factor related to the resistance and conductance. In a...

Low-Pass Filters
Low-pass filters are designed to transmit signals with frequencies lower than the cutoff frequency, ωc, and attenuate those above it. The cutoff frequency...
