“…10 with tan δ = 1.0e−3 at f = 96.0092 GHz as an example, the transmission coefficient of the single layer FSS is T 2 = 8.22e − 06, while the dielectric loss is 6.24e − 04. From (19) it is assumed that there is no dielectric loss when considering conductor losses, and vice versa. The foam is assumed to be lossless.…”

Abstract-A design methodology of narrow band-pass frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) using the Fabry-Perot approach is presented. The whole FSS structure consists of two identical single layer FSSs separated by a foam layer, which forms a Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI). The band-pass characteristic is a result of the FPI. The pass band can be controlled by the thickness of the foam, and the bandwidth can be controlled by the reflection coefficients of the single layer FSSs. The effects of both metallic and dielectric losses are discussed. It is interesting to note that the transmission peaks of FPI with high Q factor decline rapidly and finally disappear as the losses increase, and the insertion loss is mainly due to the refection. The relationship between the insertion loss and the Q factor of the FPI is examined. As examples, narrow band-pass FSSs at about 96 GHz with different bandwidths are designed.

“…These structures are used in anti-reflection coatings, radar absorbing structures, and filters [1][2][3]. Alternating layers of double positive (DPS) and double negative (DNG) materials are used to show transmission tunneling [4].…”

“…Liu and Behdad demonstrated that the problem of EM wave tunneling through cascaded epsilon-negative metamaterial and double positive material barrier structure is analogous to the classical problem of coupled-resonator microwave filters [5]. In recent studies on multilayered structures, researchers have been using integer dimension substrate [1][2][3][4][5][6]21]; this means that the effect of dimension on the characteristics of structures was not considered. This research has been carried out to further include the parameter of dimension and see its effect on the characteristics of the multilayered structures, because not every object that exists in this universe can be modeled with Euclidean geometry (integer dimension).…”

Abstract-This paper discusses the electromagnetic characteristics of a stratified metamaterial structure placed in fractional dimension space. Reflection and transmission coefficients for plane wave incident on multilayered structure in D-dimensional space are computed. Transfer matrix method is used to study the behaviour of different planer multilayered periodic metamaterial structures. The results are compared for integer and fractal dimensional spaces for both the cases of normal and oblique incidences. Classical results are recovered for integer dimensions. This work provides solution for examining the electromagnetic fields and waves in multilayered structures at fractal interfaces.

“…[7][8][9] As it is well known that metamaterials are composed of subwavelength unit cells, it is convenient to design FSS using the concept of metamaterial. [10][11][12][13] As an alternative to metallic FSS, dielectric materials can be used to design and fabricate FSS or filters. Actually, the study of employing dielectrics in filters design may date back to decades ago.…”

Frequency selective surface (FSS) has been extensively studied due to its potential applications in radomes, antenna reflectors, high-impedance surfaces and absorbers. Recently, a new principle of designing FSS has been proposed and mainly studied in two levels. In the level of materials, dielectric materials instead of metallic patterns are capable of achieving more functional performance in FSS design. Moreover, FSSs made of dielectric materials can be used in different extreme environments, depending on their electrical, thermal or mechanical properties. In the level of design principle, the theory of metamaterial can be used to design FSS in a convenient and concise way. In this review paper, we provide a brief summary about the recent progress in all-dielectric metamaterial frequency selective surface (ADM-FSS). The basic principle of designing ADM-FSS is summarized. As significant tools, Mie theory and dielectric resonator (DR) theory are given which illustrate clearly how they are used in the FSS design. Then, several design cases including dielectric particle-based ADM-FSS and dielectric network-based ADM-FSS are introduced and reviewed. After a discussion of these two types of ADM-FSSs, we reviewed the existing fabrication techniques that are used in building the experiment samples. Finally, issues and challenges regarding the rapid fabrication techniques and further development aspects are discussed.
