Abstract

Artificial periodic structures, consisting of an assembly of identical or alike elements in one, two or three dimensions, can be engineered in such a way that they exhibit interesting features when interacting with electromagnetic (EM) waves throughout the spectrum. In optics, photonic band-gap (PBG) crystals exhibit band-gaps where the propagation of EM waves is prohibited. Previous research at lower frequencies resulted in the emergence of frequency-selective surfaces (FSS), consisting of resonant metallo-dielectric periodic arrays with pass/stop band characteristics. Other interesting EM properties, such as in-phase reflection and negative index of refraction, have been demonstrated by means of periodic arrays, such as artificial magnetic conductors (AMC) and negative index materials (NIM). Recently, these and other designs have been categorized under the broad term electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structures [1].
