Abstract
In this paper, the tunneling phenomenon occurring in a pair structure made of epsilon-negative (ENG) and mu-negative (MNG) metamaterials is experimentally studied. The ENG and MNG metamaterials are fabricated using coplanar waveguide loading with lumped-element series capacitors and shunt inductors. The properties of the tunneling mode are investigated by means of the transfer-matrix method, based on the experiment parameters of effective permittivity and permeability. The results show that the tunneling frequency is independent of the pair length and the electric field is highly localized at the interface of the ENG-MNG pair. These features illustrate that the pair behaves as a cavity with strongly enhanced electric field and with dimensions beyond the half-wavelength limit.
