Meta Materials refers to some artificial composite structures with the extraordinary physical property not available for natural material or composite material; By the structurally ordered design on the key physical yardstick of material, the restriction of some apparent natural law can be broken through, thus obtain the meta-materials function exceeding the intrinsic common character of nature.
Meta Materials is made up of medium substrate and the multiple man-made microstructure unit be arranged on substrate, and wherein, each man-made microstructure comprises a man-made microstructure; Each man-made microstructure size is generally less than 1/10 wavelength, and it has electroresponse and/or magnetic response to extra electric field and/or magnetic field, thus has and show effective dielectric constant and/or equivalent permeability.The effective dielectric constant of man-made microstructure and equivalent permeability are determined by its topological structure and physical dimension parameter, can artificially design and control.Further, man-made microstructure can have the anisotropic electromagnetic parameter of artificial design.
Electromagnetic wave (also known as electromagnetic radiation) is by in-phase oscillation and mutually perpendicular electric field and magnetic field are moved with the form of ripple in space, the plane that its direction of propagation is formed perpendicular to electric field and magnetic field, effectively transferring energy and momentum.Electromagnetic radiation according to frequency categorization, from low frequency to high-frequency, can include radio wave, microwave, infrared ray, visible ray, ultraviolet light, X-ray and gamma ray etc.The electromagnetic radiation that human eye can receive, wavelength between 380 to 780 nanometers, is called visible ray greatly.As long as self-temperature is greater than the object of absolute zero, can electromagnetic radiation-emitting, and there is not the object that temperature is equal to or less than absolute zero in the world.
The dispersion of light refers to that polychromatic light is decomposed into monochromatic light and forms the phenomenon of spectrum.The dispersion of light can utilize prism or grating etc. to realize as the instrument of " dispersion system ".After polychromatic light enters prism, because it has different refractivity to the light of various frequency, there is deviation in various degree the direction of propagation of various coloured light, and the thus just dispersion separately when leaving prism, forms spectrum.A few train wave is propagated in medium, and their frequency is different, and propagation velocity is also different, this phenomenon dispersion, in physics, every with velocity of wave, the relevant phenomenon of wavelength, be called dispersion; Electromagnetic dispersion refers to that the multifrequency electromagnetic wave comprising multiple frequency is decomposed into several single-frequency electromagnetic wave, and multifrequency electromagnetic wave is when by medium, because medium is different to the electromagnetic refractive index of each single-frequency, so multifrequency electromagnetic wave can produce dispersion; But general, multifrequency electromagnetic wave is the electromagnetic wave of cline frequency, is namely the electromagnetic wave of certain frequency band, and the electromagnetic frequency of each single-frequency all gradually changes, so when by medium, deflection angle also gradually changes.
In prior art, energy dispersion multifrequency electromagnetic wave, but be small for the relative change between each single-frequency electromagnetic wave, the electromagnetic effect of beam splitting multifrequency can not be reached, if namely need the single-frequency electromagnetic wave beam splitting by some in a multifrequency electromagnetic wave or certain several characteristic frequency, prior art is difficult to accomplish.
