The refractive index of a material is expressed as the square root of the product of permittivity and permeability, and in nature it is common for the refractive index of a material to have a positive value. On the other hand, the meta-material refers to a material having a negative dielectric constant or permeability in a specific frequency range.

The method of obtaining negative permeability was known in 1999 after Professor Pendrie proposed the split ring resonator (SSR) structure.In 2001, a specific frequency range was used for metamaterials manufactured by combining wire and SSR structures. The metamaterial with the actual negative refractive index was produced.

In other words, to realize a negative dielectric constant, a wire structure composed of periodically arranged stripe patterns is used, and an SSR structure is used to obtain a negative permeability. By combining the wire structure and the SSR structure, the dielectric constant and permeability have negative values at the same time, thereby realizing the negative refractive index. Alternatively, a negative dielectric constant and a negative permeability may be obtained by using a structure such as an s-type resonator or an Ω-type unit cell. However, the meta-material prepared in this way has a problem that the frequency bandwidth of the negative refractive index is relatively narrow.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and compared with the conventional unit cell, and the meta-material that can extend the frequency bandwidth of the negative refractive index and the control of the dielectric constant, permeability or refractive index by using such a meta-material Provide a way to. The foregoing problem has been presented by way of example, and the scope of the present invention is not limited by this problem.

According to one aspect of the invention, the plate-like dielectric substrate; A first conductor pattern formed of a stripe extending on a top surface of the dielectric substrate with a first width; A second conductor pattern formed of a stripe extending on a lower surface of the dielectric substrate with a second width, wherein the first and second conductor patterns are provided by a broadband metamaterial having a cutting region in which some of the stripes are lost. do.

In this case, a passive element may be formed in the cutting region, and the passive element may include at least one of a capacitor and an inductor.

The first conductor pattern or the second conductor pattern may include a first stripe extending along an outer portion of the dielectric substrate; And a second stripe extending from the first stripe to the inside of the dielectric substrate and extending in parallel with the first stripe, wherein the cutting region is formed on the first stripe.

In addition, the first conductor pattern or the second conductor pattern may include a first stripe extending in a C shape; And a second stripe extending from the first stripe to the inside of the dielectric and extending in parallel with the first stripe, wherein the cutting region may be formed on the first stripe.

In this case, the first and second conductor patterns may have an array in which the first and second conductor patterns are rotated at a predetermined angle to each other.

In addition, the first and second conductor patterns may be asymmetric with each other.

According to another aspect of the present invention, a plate-like comprising a conductor pattern formed in one or more of the upper and lower surfaces of the plate-shaped dielectric substrate extending in a stripe shape and a passive element formed in the cutting region is missing a portion of the conductor pattern Preparing a metamaterial; And controlling any one or more parameters of the dielectric constant, permeability, and refractive index of the metamaterial by adjusting electrical characteristics of the passive element.

In this case, the passive element may be a capacitor or an inductor, and the electrical characteristics may be capacitance or inductance.

The metamaterial of the present invention can be controlled by varying the characteristics of a passive element such as a capacitor or an inductor to extend a frequency bandwidth indicating a negative refractive index. Therefore, miniaturization and wideband can be obtained, and at the same time, parameters such as permittivity, permeability, and refractive index can be adjusted according to frequency. The technical features of the present invention cannot be realized in a structure using only passive elements. Other metamaterials can be applied directly to many applications requiring changes in refractive index.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments disclosed below, but will be implemented in various forms, and only the embodiments are intended to complete the disclosure of the present invention and to those skilled in the art to fully understand the scope of the invention.

1 is a cross-sectional view, a plan view, and a rear view of a metamaterial according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to (a) of FIG. 1, the metamaterial 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention has a plate shape, and specifically, the first and second surfaces formed on the top and bottom surfaces of the dielectric substrate 101 and the dielectric substrate 101. Second conductor patterns 102 and 103.

The dielectric substrate 101 may have a plate-like structure in which a plurality of dielectrics having one or different dielectric constants are stacked.

Referring to Figure 1 (b), the left side shows the upper surface, the right side shows the lower surface. A first conductor pattern 102 made of a stripe extending with a first width is formed on the top surface, and a second conductor 103 made of a stripe extending with a second width is formed on the bottom surface. In this case, the first width and the second width may have the same value, but the present invention is not limited thereto and includes a different value.

At this time, the lower surface, which is the right side view, shows that the lower surface is deployed in the right direction while the upper surface of the dielectric substrate 101 is viewed from above, and the first conductor pattern of the upper surface in the vertical direction (z direction) of the dielectric substrate 101 is shown. 102 and the second conductor pattern 103 on the lower surface are symmetric with each other. This applies to all the drawings described below.

In this case, each of the first or second conductor patterns 102 and 103 may have a first stripe 102a and 103a and a first stripe 102a extending parallel to one side of the dielectric substrate 101 on an outer portion of the dielectric substrate 101. Second stripes 102b and 103b extending from 103a into the dielectric substrate 101 and extending parallel to the first stripes 102a and 103a.

The first and second conductor patterns 102 and 103 formed on the dielectric substrate 101 may form one unit cell.

In this case, at least one of the first conductor pattern 102 and the second conductor pattern 103 may be formed with a cutting region in which some of the stripes are lost. For example, as shown in FIG. 1B, portions of the stripe may be lost on the first and second conductor patterns 102 and 103 to form regions 104 and 105 where the stripe is completely cut.

In this case, the cutting regions 104 and 105 may be formed on the first stripes 102a and 102b as shown in FIG. 1B.

Passive elements may be formed in the cut regions 104 and 105. In this case, the passive element includes a capacitor or an inductor. Such a passive element may vary its tourmaline characteristics by an electrical signal, and control the frequency characteristics of the metamaterial 100 by controlling the value of the electrical characteristic. 2 shows an embodiment of a metamaterial with such passive elements.

2 is a plan view and a rear view of a metamaterial using a capacitor as a passive element.

Referring to FIG. 2, a capacitor 106 is formed as a passive element in the cut region of the first conductor pattern 102 formed on the top surface of the dielectric substrate 101, and on the right side, the dielectric substrate 101 is formed. The capacitor 107 is formed in the cut region of the second conductor pattern 103 formed on the lower surface.

When the passive element is a capacitor as shown in FIG. 2, a frequency band in which the metamaterial 100 has a negative dielectric constant, permeability, and refractive index (hereinafter referred to as a metamaterial parameter) may be changed according to a capacitance value of the capacitor. Can be.

FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating electromagnetic characteristics according to the frequency of the metamaterial shown in FIG. 1.

Referring to FIG. 3, an index of refraction, an effective permittivity, a normalized impedence, and a relative permeability are shown.

4 is a diagram illustrating electromagnetic characteristics at a frequency of the metamaterial shown in FIG. 2.

4 shows the electromagnetic characteristics according to the frequency when the capacitance of the metamaterial is 0, 0.3, 1.0 pF. The black line, the red line, and the blue line show the results when the capacitance is 0, 0.3, 1.0 pF, respectively. .

Referring to (a) and (d) of FIG. 4, the effective dielectric constant represents a negative value in a frequency range of 0.834 GHz to 1.296 GHz introduced into the metamaterial 100 (see solid line in FIG. 4 b). ), It can be seen that the effective permeability has a negative value in the range of 0.860 GHz to 1.296 GHz (see solid line in FIG. 4D). Therefore, the refractive index from 0.834 GHz to 1.296 GHz may have a negative value. From this, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the refractive index may have a negative refractive index at a very wide frequency bandwidth of 43.38%.

At this time, the unit cell has a size downsized to about 0.21 times the frequency wavelength at 0.834 GHz, the lowest frequency at which the refractive index is negative.

Also, from (a) to (d) of FIG. 4, the effective parameter has a negative value in the range of 0.664 GHz to 0.916 GHz when using a 0.3 pF capacitor, and 0.522 GHz to 0.616 GHz when using a 1.0 pF capacitor. It can be seen that it has a negative value at.

From this, it can be seen that in the metamaterial including the capacitor, the frequency band in which the effective parameter indicates a negative value can be controlled by adjusting the capacitance, which is an electrical characteristic of the capacitor.

This effect can be equally applied to the case of using an inductor instead of a capacitor as a passive element.

Meanwhile, the first and second conductor patterns 102 and 103 may have an arrangement rotated at a predetermined angle with each other or may have an asymmetric structure with each other.

5 is a plan view and a rear view of a metamaterial according to another embodiment of the present invention.

FIG. 5A illustrates a case in which the second conductor pattern 103 is rotated 180 degrees with respect to the first conductor pattern 102, and FIG. 5B illustrates the first conductor pattern 102 and the second conductor pattern. This is the case where 103 is asymmetric with respect to the direction perpendicular to the dielectric substrate 101 (z direction in FIG. 1).

5C illustrates a dielectric substrate from the first stripe 102a and the first stripe 102a in which the first and second conductor patterns 102 and 103 extend in a C shape, as a variation of FIG. 1. It is comprised by the 2nd stripe 103b extended in parallel with the 1st stripe 102a after extending into 101 inside.

 Although only three expandable embodiments are shown in FIGS. 5A to 5C, a unique effective parameter value as shown in FIG. 3 can be obtained by appropriately adjusting the size and shape of the patterns located on both sides of the dielectric medium. .

As another aspect of the present invention, a method for controlling the parameters of a wideband metamaterial may be provided.
