Metamaterials-by-Design 1st Edition

Metamaterials-by-Design, 1st Edition — edited by Andrea Alù, Nader Engheta, Andrea Massa, and Giacomo Oliveri — is a definitive, design-focused guide for engineers, physicists, and advanced students exploring the frontier of engineered electromagnetic materials. Clear, authoritative, and forward-looking, this volume turns complex theory into practical design insight.

Combining rigorous foundations with real-world examples, the book navigates metamaterial principles, transformation optics, metasurfaces, and nano‑photonic implementations. Expect in-depth coverage of electromagnetic scattering, dispersion engineering, antenna enhancement, cloaking concepts, and tunable RF/microwave devices — all presented with the design methodologies needed to translate idea into prototype. Contributions from leading researchers make the content both cutting-edge and trustworthy for academic and industrial use.

What sets this title apart is its balance of mathematical clarity and engineering practicality: step-by-step design approaches, comparative analyses of material platforms, and case studies that highlight measurable performance gains. Whether you’re optimizing antenna arrays, developing plasmonic sensors, or teaching a graduate course in metamaterials, the book equips you with actionable techniques and a modern conceptual toolkit.

Ideal for readers in North America, Europe, Asia and beyond, Metamaterials-by-Design is perfect for graduate students, research scientists, R&D engineers, and university libraries seeking an up-to-date reference. Add this essential resource to your collection to accelerate development in RF, microwave, photonics, and nanotechnology projects. Find it through major booksellers or academic distributors — a practical investment in the next generation of electromagnetic design.
