Abstract

This paper presents a number of metamaterial (MTM) structures and devices, with emphasis on the so-called transmission line (TL) MTMs, which have lead to most practical applications so far. Both results obtained from 2002 to mid-2005 [1] and recent advances over the past few months are described.
