FOREWORD
Science has always been plagued by occasional hype or misdirected work,
witness the N-ray of a previous century that purported to image soft tissues.
Unsupported science has appeared in force in recent years in the area
of negative parameter materials: for example, “perfect lenses” that cannot
produce a usable modulation transfer function and may not even satisfy
the standard lens equations. And electrically small antennas enclosed in
an NIM (negative index material) shell, “produce a larger voltage”—not
a word is said about efficiency, directivity, or bandwidth. These shells
have not been constructed or simulated (except in infinite arrays, using a
waveguide simulator), and probably never will be, due to mutual interactions
inside the shell. Another example is negative refraction through
an NIM wedge, where the output beam amplitude shown is normalized
to equal that of an equivalent dielectric wedge, even though the very
large attenuation (due to the reflection coefficient) might yield new physical
understanding. Good science would make measurements of beam shift
through a slab, where reflection losses are minimized—but no microwave
slab measurements have been made. Much government money is supporting
these NIM projects, but the contract monitors are not exercising the
careful and skeptical overview that good science requires. Unfortunately,
the NIM authors have tried to make NIM synonymous with metamaterials,
the latter term being much broader.
It is important to get a scientific dialogue going; to date the dialogue
has been largely one-sided, due to biased journal editorial boards. Professor
Munk is initiating a dialogue, with an emphasis on a periodic
structure approach, for which he has been a major contributor over many
years. Some of the NIM phenomena observed are probably due to surface
waves and leaky waves. In his book Wave Propagation and Group Velocity,
Brillouin shows that signal velocity and group velocity are different
for a dispersive medium. Munk reports that the signal velocity always
refracts positively, even in an NIM. Almost all of the NIM papers talk
about group velocity, but it is really signal velocity that is critical for any
practical system. Munk has also been a major contributor to various stealth

projects, including absorbers and frequency-selective surfaces. Much of
this is explained via Smith charts; he shows that use of these can provide
a physical understanding of many complex phenomena.
It is hoped that those responsible for allocating U.S. government
research money will find this book useful.
