Fresnel coefficients at an interface with a lamellar composite material

Microwave properties of ferromagnetic composites and metamaterials

“…[3][4][5] The microwave permeability and permittivity of these composites are related to the properties of the constituents by homogenization laws. 3,6 The design of composite materials with original microwave behavior has been enriched recently by the metamaterial approach. Metamaterials are a large class of artificial materials which includes the left-handed materials or negative index materials.…”

Design and measurement of negative permeability metamaterials made from conductor-coated high-index dielectric inclusions

“…4b, illuminated by a parallel H microwave field that is the same on both faces. The solution for the field inside such a slab is well known [34,41]. It has the form H int (x) = Acos(kx), where x is the distance from the middle plane of the slab with thickness 2a.…”

“…The field summation approach has been applied successfully to obtain analytical expressions for the effective parameters of lamellar media [34], composites made of hollow conductors [35], magnetic wire media [36]. It has also been successful to extract numerically effective parameters from ring-resonator media [37], and double negative media [38].…”

Copper vs. iron: Microwave magnetism in the metamaterial age

“…Numerous approaches have been employed with success to design metamaterials and compute their permeability. Some of them require a strong mathematical background, whereas others are supported by the graphical output of modern simulation software, which is beneficial for guiding the intuition of the designer [52,53]. In that respect, the present interest in metamaterials is beneficial for the entire community interested in microwave magnetism.…”
