Abstract

The complex permittivity and permeability of various periodic metamaterial (MTM) cells are extracted by simulating a fictitious rectangular waveguide consisting of PEC and PMC walls. The shapes of the MTM cells include a thin wire (TW), a single split-ring resonator (SSRR), a double SRR (DSRR), a modified SRR, and a combined structure of the TW and the DSRR. The TW falls on a negative-$\varepsilon$/positive-$\mu$ region, the SRRs on a positive-$\varepsilon$/negative-$\mu$ region, and the combined structure on a negative-$\varepsilon$/negative-$\mu$ region. We also investigate how the permeability and permeability are affected by the dimension parameters of the MTM cells. Another extraction technique utilizing time domain signals is developed overcoming some limitations that the waveguide technique can not handle.

구형 도파관 기법을 이용하여 다양한 모양을 가진 주기적인 metamaterial (MTM) 셀의 복소 유전율과 투자율을 시뮬레이션으로 추출하였다. 이 도파관은 PEC 벽과 PMC 벽으로 구성된 가상적인 것이고, 고려된 MTM 셀의 모양은 thin wire (TW), single split-ring resonator (SSRR), double SRR (DSRR), modified SRR, 그리고 TW와 DSRR이 결합된 구조이다. TW는 음의 유전율/양의 투자율, SRR은 양의 유전율/음의 투자율, 그리고 TW와 DSRR을 합친 구조는 유전율과 투자율이 동시에 음이 되는 영역이 나타남을 확인하였다. 각 셀의 파라미터에 따른 유전율과 투자율의 변화를 살펴보았다. 추가적인 연구로서 상기 도파관 기법의 단점을 보완하는 시 영역 신호를 이용한 추출 방법을 소개했다.
