Abstract :
We present the latest results for two RF/microwave devices and structures that we are developing at the University of Toronto, based on transmission-line NRI metamaterials. The first example is a super-resolving planar lens around 1 GHz and the second is a low-profile antenna, radiating vertical polarization, around 30 GHz.
