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.
