Abstract :
In this work we have successfully performed 3D full wave simulations of coated spheres. Retrieved effective material properties shows negative index of refraction similar to earlier analytical results except for some quantitative differences. The next step is to explore metamaterial property sensitivity to intrinsic material properties and fabrication tolerance.
