| Sumario: | Metamaterials are efficiently homogenizable arrangements of artificial structural components engineered to achieve beneficial and exotic electromagnetic (EM) properties not found in natural materials. Metasurfaces are the two-dimensional analogue of metamaterials consisting of single-layer or multi-layer stacks of planar structures. Both metamaterials and metasurfaces have great potential to be used in a wide range of applications, e.g., antennas, polarization converters, radar cross section (RCS) reduction, and absorbers, to control the amplitude, phase and polarization of the reflected and transmitted EM waves. This chapter presents a brief overview of the known types and applications of metamaterials/metasurface followed by comprehensive analysis of these surfaces for antennas performance enhancement, polarization conversion, RCS reduction, and wave absorption. |
