Metamaterials/Special Materials

Numerous materials exist that have unusual or frequency dependent properties. Using Remcom’s XFdtd software, simulations of devices containing these special materials may be performed.

Metamaterials include such items as negative index materials, electronic band gap structures and frequency selective surfaces. Special materials include frequency dependent models, anisotropic and ferrite materials, and computational extensions to the FDTD method such as sub-cellular thin wires and time-dependent switches.

Additional Information

Application Examples

Analyzing the Electromagnetic Behavior of Negative Index Materials

Since XFdtd includes frequency-dependent dielectric and magnetic materials, it is capable of making three-dimensional calculations for double negative materials, also called negative index materials and metamaterials.
