摘要
Recently, various uncommon materials such as metamaterials have been the subject of intensive research. In this paper, we introduce a new class of materials called double zero materials (DZR) having the real parts of both its epsilon and mu equal to zero and investigate the electromagnetic wave propagation in them, particularly the propagation constant k and intrinsic impedance eta. We investigate the reflection and transmission coefficients from multilayer structures made of DZR material located in various media. It is shown that the DZR constants namely k and eta and also the reflection and transmission coefficients from the multilayer structures are all real quantities. Several numerical examples are provided for both dispersive and nondispersive DZR materials.
