摘要
The isotropic-like fishnet metamaterial with an array of cross-shaped holes penetrating through the multiple layers has been numerically studied in the terahertz regime. Its left-handed properties are described by the retrieved effect media parameters and validated by the simulation of a wedge-shaped model. The influences of the various geometrical parameters on the electromagnetic response and the left-handed performance are investigated. This isotropic-like fishnet metamaterial has the advantage of lower losses and higher transmission and holds potential for further applications at higher frequencies. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
