In this seminar, Prof. Yiannis Vardaxoglou from Loughborough University, UK, will introduce the concept and uses of Meta-Atoms in Electromagnetic metamaterials. 3D-printed multi-layered metamaterials with different periodicities of the metallic rectangular meso scale cuboid inclusions, termed here as meta-atoms. Potentially, these meta-atoms could be varied in constitution and geometry to augment a variety of artificial magnetodielectric properties. The periodicity indicates the spaces between adjacent elements. The effect of the space on the effective EM properties is examined by placing the 3D-printed samples in a waveguide or on a resonator. Some of these structures have been applied in engineering applications such as antennas and microwave lenses.
