Transmission line realization of subwavelength resonator formed by a pair of conventional and LHM slabs

摘要

In this paper, the authors present the transmission line (TL) realization of one-dimensional subwavelength resonator formed by a pair of conventional right-handed material (RHM) and left-handed material (LHM). In such resonator, a novel reso- nant mode with the resonant frequency depending on the length ratio of the RH/LH TL sections occurs as a consequence of the full phase compensation due to the backward wave in the LH TL section. The theoretical circuit-model analyses are supported by simulation and experimental evidence on resonators with different RH/LH length ratios.
