Abstract :
The experimental demonstration of the insensitivity to losses and size of the composite right/left- handed (CRLH) zeroth order resonator (ZOR) is reported for the first time. The prototypes used for this demonstration are implemented in metal-insulator-metal (MIM) technology, which exhibits simplicity of design, high compactness and immunity to spurious resonances.
