Physics and Applications of Negative Refractive Index Materials

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Providing detailed explanations on the history, development, and main achievements of metamaterials, this state-of-the-art book covers the fundamental physical principles and emerging engineering applications of structured electromagnetic metamaterials that yield a negative refraction. The authors discuss the modeling of structured materials and effective medium parameter retrieval procedures along with fundamental issues such as the negative refraction of surface plasmons and nonlinear properties of metamaterials. They also explore novel concepts and phenomena, including the perfect lens, hyper lenses, electromagnetic cloaking and invisibility, and near-field optical imaging.
