Influence of Spatial Dispersion on Propagation Properties of Waveguides Based on Hyperbolic Metamaterial
In this work, we study the effect of spatial dispersion on propagation properties of planar waveguides with the core layer formed by hyperbolic metamaterial (HMM). In our case, the influence of spatial dispersion was controlled by changing the unit cell’s dimensions. Our analysis revealed a number o...
