Summary:

"Metamaterials: Theory, Design, and Application" focuses on the most recent research activity in metamaterials, taking a reader beyond previously covered areas like left-handed materials (LHM) and negative index material (LIM). Some new developments covered in the book include a rapid design method for inhomogeneous metamaterials, microwaves and RF applications of metamaterials and dynamic metamaterials systems. Editors Tie Jun Cui, David R. Smith and Ruopeng Liu bring together the leading international minds focused on metamaterials to provide an all-encompassing look at a rapidly-developing field. Drawing on their years of experience in the field, editors Tie Jun Cui, David R. Smith and Ruopeng Liu Present a breadth of research in metamaterials, covering areas like:

Optical transformation theory, including invisible cloaks, concentrators, beam splitters and antennas.

Photonic metamaterials and the magnetic Plasmon effect.

Experimental verification techniques for invisible cloaks.

"Metamaterials: Theory, Design, and Applications" stands alone as a must-read for any engineer or researcher working with metamaterials.
