            Abstract : 
We have designed, fabricated, and tested a new class of metamaterials based on the Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID). Our motivation is to create new metamaterials with extreme degrees of tunability (> 100%) on very short time scales (<; μs). The design philosophy, fabrication, and initial testing results under cryogenic conditions are discussed.
