Metamaterials (journal)

Metamaterials was a peer-reviewed scientific journal that was established in March 2007. It was published by Elsevier in association with the Metamorphose Network of Excellence. The coordinating editor was Mikhail Lapine. The journal was published quarterly, with occasional special issues. It covered research concerning metamaterials, such as artificial electromagnetic materials, which includes various types of composite periodic structures and frequency selective surfaces in the microwave and optical range. Metamaterials was abstracted and/or indexed in the following databases: Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS), Compendex, Ei Compendex, Inspec, and Scopus. The title was discontinued in 2013, and was incorporated into Photonics and Nanostructures - Fundamentals and Applications as a special section. The following is derived from the list of Top 10 Cited articles published in the last five years, extracted from Scopus on Sunday, June 6, 2010.

History of metamaterials

The history of metamaterials begins with artificial dielectrics in microwave engineering as it developed just after World War II. Yet, there are seminal explorations of artificial materials for manipulating electromagnetic waves at the end of the 19th century. Hence, the history of metamaterials is essentially a history of developing certain types of manufactured materials, which interact at radio frequency, microwave, and later optical frequencies.

Metamaterial cloaking

Metamaterial cloaking is the usage of metamaterials in an invisibility cloak. This is accomplished by manipulating the paths traversed by light through a novel optical material. Metamaterials direct and control the propagation and transmission of specified parts of the light spectrum and demonstrate the potential to render an object seemingly invisible. Metamaterial cloaking, based on transformation optics, describes the process of shielding something from view by controlling electromagnetic radiation.

Negative-index metamaterial

Negative-index metamaterial or negative-index material (NIM) is a metamaterial whose refractive index for an electromagnetic wave has a negative value over some frequency range. NIMs are constructed of periodic basic parts called unit cells, which are usually significantly smaller than the wavelength of the externally applied electromagnetic radiation. The unit cells of the first experimentally investigated NIMs were constructed from circuit board material, or in other words, wires and dielectrics.
