Abstract
Different from the traditional electromagnetic material, the electromagnetic metamaterial has tremendous application potential in antenna designing, superlens and stealth fields because of its negative properties in permeability and/or permittivity. In this paper, a novel structure of electromagnetic metamaterial with middle-frequency band is designed and analyzed. The unit of this novel structure is composed of a copper wire and a resonator which are distributed in both sides of a substrate respectively. In this case, the resonators realize the negative permeability, and the copper wire realizes the negative permittivity. The simulation results indicate that the effective refraction index is negative from 360 to 450 MHz. The advantage of this structure is that its unit is compact and easy to form artificially periodic array.
