Abstract :
Negative-index materials (NIM), also known as left-handed (LH) media, are becoming an exciting reality, Here we present experimental results for harmonic generation and parametric generation in a short left-handed nonlinear transmission line (NLTL) that confirms the general predictions of Kozyrev et al. (2005).
