Abstract

A new composite medium that possesses simultaneously negative permittivity and permeability in the microwave wavelength range is proposed. The medium is composed of evanescent waveguide structures responsible for the negative permittivity, with embedded cylindrical elements of a one-dimensional chiral medium accounting for the negative permeability. The evanescent waveguide structures exhibit blooming and antiresonances in the reflection coefficient.
