TL;DR: Metamaterials are typically engineered by arranging a set of small scatterers or apertures in a regular array throughout a region of space, thus obtaining some desirable bulk electromagnetic behavior as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The generalized sheet transition conditions (GSTCs) for the average electromagnetic fields across a surface distribution of electrically small scatterers characterized by electric and magnetic polarization densities were derived in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, a composite medium consisting of insulating magnetodielectric spherical particles embedded in a background matrix is studied and it is shown that the effective permeability and permittivity of the mixture can be simultaneously negative for wavelengths where the spherical inclusions are resonant and that the medium results in an effective "double negative" media.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived generalized sheet transition conditions (GSTCs) for the average (or "macroscopic") electromagnetic fields across a metafilm, which, when properly designed, can have certain desired reflection and transmission properties.

TL;DR: In this article, an appropriate interpretation and characterization of metafilms and a retrieval approach for determining the uniquely defined quantities (the electric and magnetic susceptibilities of its constituent scatterers) are presented.
