Abstract

A backward-wave slab based on a capacitively and inductively loaded three-dimensional transmission-line network is designed in such a way that impedance-matching with free space is obtained. To enable field propagation from free space to the network and vice versa, the use of a transition layer is proposed. Matching of the designed network with free space and negative refraction occurring at the slab interfaces are confirmed with full-wave simulations.
