Mysterious negative index metamaterials overview A negative index metamaterial causes light to refract, or bend, in a manner that would not occur naturally. Negative index metamaterials (NIMs), are artificial structures where the refractive index has a negative value over some frequency range.This does not occur in any known natural materials, and thus is only achievable with engineered structures known as metamaterials. Metamaterial broadly refers to any synthetic material with unusual refractive properties, among other descriptions. Metamaterials which exhibit a negative value for the refractive index (NIM) are often referred to by any of several names and terminologies: left-handed media (LHM), backward wave media (BW media), media with negative refractive index, double negative (DNG) metamaterials, and other similar names. History Metamaterials are incarnations of materials first proposed by a Russian theorist Victor Veselago in 1967. The proposed left-handed or negative index materials were theorized to exhibit optical properties opposite to those of glass, air, and the other optical materials of our everyday world. Thirty years after1967, the Negative index materials only stay in theory, scientists dont found it in nature. In the year 2000 a team of UCSD researchers according to the suggestion, use of composite materials mainly with copper produced a new class of composite materials which exhibited unusual physical properties that were never before produced in nature. So as to prove the existence of left-handed materials. Physical properties 1.Negative refractive index 2. Reversed Doppler Effect On the right hand of materials, when the distance between the structure and the observer increases, observed after the reflection wave frequency will decrease, this is the doppler effect. But in left-handed materials, observed in the reflection wave frequency will be added. 3.reversed Cherenkov radiation When a charged particle uniform motion in a
