Design and simulation of a 3-dimensional metamaterial prism

Summary form only given. The goal of this paper is to define a unit cell containing an electric and magnetic complement and degenerate pair of resonators and subsequently construct a 3-dimensional (3D) n = -1 refractive index prism based upon the final unit cell design. In this effort simulating and observing the response of a negative-index metamaterial (MM) prism to a plane-wave excitation was a primary intent. However, an equally-important goal was to develop an efficient and high-fidelity process for arriving at the prism design.
