All-dielectric metamaterial frequency selective surfaces based on high-permittivity ceramic resonators

Abstract

In this letter, we propose the design of all-dielectric metamaterial frequency selective surface (FSS) using high-permittivity ceramics. The FSS is composed of 2D arrays of rectangular ceramic resonators. By adjusting the geometrical parameters of the ceramic resonator, the first two resonant modes are merged to achieve broadband band-stop property. As an example, a nearly 1.5 GHz wide stop-band is demonstrated both numerically and experimentally in X band. Since such FSSs are made of low-loss high-permittivity ceramics, they are of important values especially in high-temperature or high-power applications. The method can also be used to design all-dielectric FSS in other frequencies by simply scaling the geometry parameters.
