Experimental determination of the quadratic nonlinear magnetic susceptibility of a varactor-loaded split ring resonator metamaterial

This letter presents a quantitative measurement of the second harmonic generated by a slab of varactor loaded split ring resonator metamaterial and the retrieval of the effective quadratic nonlinear magnetic susceptibility χ m ( 2 ) using an approach based on transfer matrices. The retrieved value o...

Zusammenfassung:This letter presents a quantitative measurement of the second harmonic generated by a slab of varactor loaded split ring resonator metamaterial and the retrieval of the effective quadratic nonlinear magnetic susceptibility χ m ( 2 ) using an approach based on transfer matrices. The retrieved value of χ m ( 2 ) is in excellent agreement with that predicted by an analytical effective medium theory model.
