Abstract :
The effects of left-handed materials (LHM) on frequency selective reflection characteristics of dielectric periodic structures are carefully investigated using a method which combines the multimode network theory with the rigorous mode matching method. It has been shown that the selective behavior of periodic structures can be modified by adding LHM layers above and below the periodic layer.
