Abstract

Experimental investigation of ultra-broadband simultaneous superluminal phase and group velocity in recently introduced epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) non-Foster metamaterial is reported. The phase and group velocities were extracted both from the measurements of scattering parameters in the frequency domain and the measurements of propagation time of broadband Gaussian pulse in time domain. Reported superluminal effects are extremely broadband (relative bandwidth of 180% (1:20)) and they are fundamentally different from widely reported narrowband experiments based on the anomalous dispersion. The phenomenon of simultaneous superluminal phase and group velocities may find applications in transformation electromagnetic devices and in communication systems.
