Abstract

Artificial magnetodielectric media are considered which are composed of two subsystems-one, possessing a negative dielectric permittivity and another, possessing a negative magnetic permeability. It is shown that the resulting composite material is characterized by a negative refractive index only under certain special conditions: in the absence of a strong quasistatic coupling between the two subsystems.
