All-dielectric metamaterial band stop frequency selective surface via high-permittivity ceramics

摘要

In this paper, a band stop all-dielectric metamaterial frequency selective surface (FSS) is designed based on effective medium theory and dielectric resonator theory. The FSS is made of high-permittivity ceramics without using any metallic parts. The stop band FSS is composed of 2D arrays of Jerusalem cross-shaped ceramic resonators. Solid-state sintering method is adopted to prepare the high-permittivity ceramics, which is made of 0.7Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3-0.3La(Mg0.5Ti0.5)O3. The permittivity of this ceramics is about 110. The simulation results show that the FSS can achieve a stop band at 6.91-9.25 GHz. The relative effective permittivity, permeability and the normalized impedance of the structure are retrieved, showing that the first resonant is a magnetic resonant and the second resonant is an electric resonant. Due to the magnetic and electric resonant, the impedance matching becomes worse, so the normalized impedance is close to 0 and the stop band forms. The electric fields and magnetic fields of the resonant points are observed to further analysis the FSS. At the first resonant point, the electric field loop is formed, equivalent to a magnetic dipole. At the second resonant point, the magnetic field loop is formed, equivalent to an electric dipole. The magnetic and electric fields are accordance with the retrieved parameters. Since such FSSs are made of high-permittivity ceramics, they have potential engineering application in high-power or high-temperature.
