Embodiment
Light, as electromagnetic one, it is when passing glass, because the wavelength of light is much larger than the size of atom, therefore we can use the univers parameter of glass, such as refractive index, instead of the details parameter of the atom of composition glass describes the response of glass to light.Accordingly, when research material is to other electromagnetic responses, in material, any yardstick also can with the univers parameter of material to electromagnetic response much smaller than the structure of electromagnetic wavelength, and such as DIELECTRIC CONSTANT ε and magnetic permeability μ describe.The structure often put by designing material is made the dielectric constant of material each point and magnetic permeability all identical or different thus makes the dielectric constant of material monolithic and magnetic permeability be certain rule arrangement, magnetic permeability and the dielectric constant of rule arrangement can make material have response macroscopically to electromagnetic wave, such as, converge electromagnetic wave, divergent electromagnetic ripple etc.Such have rule arrangement magnetic permeability and dielectric constant material we be referred to as Meta Materials.
As shown in Figure 1, Fig. 1 is the perspective view of the elementary cell forming Meta Materials.The artificial foramen structure 1 that the elementary cell of Meta Materials comprises base material 2 and formed in base material 2.In base material 2, form artificial foramen structure 1 makes base material 2 dielectric constant of often different along with the difference of artificial foramen structural volume with magnetic permeability, thus the incident wave of each Meta Materials elementary cell to same frequency has different electromagnetic responses.Multiple Meta Materials elementary cell arranges according to certain rules and Meta Materials can be made to have the response of macroscopic view to electromagnetic wave.Due to Meta Materials overall need to incident electromagnetic wave have macroscopical electromagnetic response therefore each Meta Materials elementary cell need form continuous response to the response of incident electromagnetic wave, this requires that each Meta Materials elementary cell is of a size of 1/1 to five/10th of incident electromagnetic wave, is preferably 1/10th of incident electromagnetic wave.During this section describes, what we were artificial is divided into multiple Meta Materials elementary cell by Meta Materials entirety, but should know that this kind of division methods is only for convenience of description, should not regard Meta Materials as spliced by multiple Meta Materials elementary cell or assemble, in practical application, Meta Materials is that artificial foramen structural cycle is arranged in base material and can be formed, and technique is simple and with low cost.Namely cycle arrangement refers to above-mentioned each Meta Materials elementary cell that we artificially divide can produce continuous print electromagnetic response to incident electromagnetic wave.
