Abstract

In this manuscript, we report an S-type negative index metamaterial composed of via holes and strip wires. Unlike common S-type microstructure working mainly under grazing incident wave, it can operate under normal incidence directly. From the experiment and numerical results, it is shown that such a microstructure exhibits left-handed passband around 8.5 GHz, where the effective index is confirmed to be negative by retrieval effective parameters. In addition, the left-handed passband of S-type metamaterial can be tailored by varying the radius of via hole.
