Abstract
Metamaterials owe their electromagnetic properties to their physical structure rather than to their chemical composition, a characteristic they share with photonic crystals. In contrast to photonic crystals the defining structure is on a scale much less than the wavelength of relevant radiation, typical by a factor of ten or more. See figure 1.
