Demonstration of negative refraction of microwaves

An experimental setup to demonstrate negative refraction is described. A simple method for designing and fabricating a metamaterial with negative refractive index at microwave frequencies is discussed. The metamaterial is made of a multilayer planar arrangement of flat unit cells. A prism was fabric...

Sumario:An experimental setup to demonstrate negative refraction is described. A simple method for designing and fabricating a metamaterial with negative refractive index at microwave frequencies is discussed. The metamaterial is made of a multilayer planar arrangement of flat unit cells. A prism was fabricated and used to demonstrate negative refraction at the prism-air interface. The prism is designed for demonstrations and works at the frequency of commercial microwave transmitters and receivers
