Numerical demonstration of three-dimensional terahertz metamaterials based on the causality principle

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/23/2/027804

Abstract A parameter retrieval algorithm based on the causality principle and Kramers–Kronig (KK) relations is employed to calculate the effective parameters of three-dimensional (3D) metamaterials. Using KK relations, the branch selecting problem, which is the challenge of effective parameter retrieval method, can be removed. To reveal the validity of the proposed algorithm, the constitutive refractive index of a homogeneous polymide cube is extracted. The result is in excellent agreement with the intrinsic refractive index of the polymide. Finally, the two terahertz metamaterials with 3D structures are designed and their effective parameters are then retrieved using the proposed algorithm. Numerical simulations are performed using the full-wave electromagnetic solver, CST Microwave Studio.

Keywords: metamaterial three-dimensional causality principle Kramers–Kronig relations
