Inductance and Conductance Characteristic Effect Towards H-Shape Metamaterial Design Performances for Light/THz Application

Abstract

Unit cell is a meta-atom structured to form a metamaterial. The size of the unit cell is related to the frequency of waves. The structure size is smaller than the wavelength of the incident waves. Since light frequency used is Terahertz, the size of unit cell is in nanometer. Unit cell geometrical shape is design using copper and it placed on the Rogers substrate. It designed based on the desired of the researcher. There is no specific design assigned to specific application. The objective in this paper is to exhibit the negative refractive index or negative index material that is capable to bend the light wave. H Shape design has been used widely as a design to manipulate the electromagnetic waves but none of them used for higher frequency such as light frequency. The negative value of material properties obtained from the simulation of the metamaterial at three different part which are at phase=0, real value and imaginary value. CST Microwave Studio used as a simulation software. The results show all the negative value of material properties obtained at different frequency range. However, the negative value of material properties at phase=0 and imaginary part is obtained at same frequency range. While for real part, the negative value for all material properties occurred at different frequency range. This H-Shape design is suitable to manipulate the lights radiation waves.
