Electromagnetic metamaterials are a family of shaped periodic materials which achieve extraordinary scattering properties that are difficult or impossible to achieve with naturally occurring materials. This book focuses on one such feature of electromagnetic metamaterials—the theory, properties, and applications of the absorption of electromagnetic radiation. We have written this book for undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and practitioners, covering the background and tools necessary to engage in the research and practice of metamaterial electromagnetic wave absorbers in various fundamental and applied settings. Given the growing impact of climate change, the call for innovations that can circumvent the use of conventional energy sources will be increasingly important. As we highlight in Chapter 6, the absorption of radiation with electromagnetic metamaterials has been used for energy harvesting and energy generation, and will help to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Other applications ranging from biochemical sensing to imaging are also covered. We hope this book equips interested readers with the tools necessary to successfully engage in applied metamaterials research for clean, sustainable energy. This book consists of six chapters. Chapter 1 provides an introduction and a brief history of electromagnetic wave absorbers; Chapter 2 focuses on several theories of perfect absorbers; Chapter 3 discusses the scattering properties achievable with metamaterial absorbers; Chapter 4 provides significant detail on the fabricational processes; Chapter 5 discusses examples of dynamical absorbers; and Chapter 6 highlights applications of metamaterial absorbers.

Metamaterials and metasurfaces are enabling modern 5G/6G wireless systems to achieve high performance while maintaining efficient costs and sizes. In the wireless industry, transmission lines play a fundamental role in the development of guided wave elements, antennas, radio frequency identification (RFID) tags, and sensors whose efficiency may be enhanced using metamaterials. Additionally, a metamaterial absorber can solve the bandwidth issue of the internet of things (IoTs) backhaul network. Metasurfaces are also potential candidates for implementing reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) due to their special wireless communication capabilities. Metamaterial Technology and Intelligent Metasurfaces for Wireless Communication Systems compiles and promotes metamaterials research and sheds light on how metamaterials and metasurfaces will be used in the 5G era and beyond. Covering topics such as active and passive metamaterials, metasurfaces-inspired antennas, and metamaterials for RFID and sensors, this book is ideal for researchers, students, academicians, and professionals.

Dielectric Metamaterials: Fundamentals, Designs, and Applications links fundamental Mie scattering theory with the latest dielectric metamaterial research, providing a valuable reference for new and experienced researchers in the field. The book begins with a historical, evolving overview of Mie scattering theory. Next, the authors describe how to apply Mie theory to analytically solve the scattering of electromagnetic waves by subwavelength particles. Later chapters focus on Mie resonator-based metamaterials, starting with microwaves where particles are much smaller than the free space wavelengths. In addition, several chapters focus on wave-front engineering using dielectric metasurfaces and the nonlinear optical effects, spontaneous emission manipulation, active devices, and 3D effective media using dielectric metamaterials.
