关于此电子书

""Metamaterial Engineering"" explores the revolutionary field of metamaterials, artificially engineered substances that manipulate electromagnetic waves in unprecedented ways. These materials, defying natural limitations, can achieve functionalities like negative refractive index, bending light in reverse, and even creating cloaking devices. The book delves into the physics governing their behavior, such as effective medium theory, and tackles the engineering challenges of nanofabrication, crucial for realizing these complex structures.

The book highlights that metamaterials represent a significant shift in material science, enabling the creation of devices with exceptional control over electromagnetic radiation. This control unlocks possibilities from advanced imaging to novel communication technologies. Did you know early concepts existed in the mid-20th century, but only advanced nanofabrication made them tangible? Or that these materials are not only theoretical; they are being used to create perfect lenses that surpass traditional limitations?

Structured for progressive understanding, the book begins with electromagnetism fundamentals, then explores specific metamaterial types like split-ring resonators. It dedicates a significant portion to applications, concluding with future research directions. This approach balances theoretical understanding with real-world considerations, making it valuable for both researchers and industry professionals interested in pushing the boundaries of technology.
