| contents | Simulating the electromagnetic properties of large-scale, complex metamaterial structures demands significant time and memory resources. If these large-scale structures can be divided into smaller, simpler components, the overall cost of studying all the smaller structures could be much lower than directly simulating the entire structure. Unfortunately, decoupling complex structures has been challenging due to the unclear mechanisms of near-field coupling in metamaterials. In this paper, we identify that the key to understanding near-field coupling in metamaterials lies in evanescent wave interactions, which can be captured through full-wave simulations. Our findings suggest that by accounting for the influence of evanescent waves, it becomes possible to analytically decouple and then recouple structures, even when the types of metamaterial structures vary. Building on this insight, we successfully decomposed complex structures into multiple groups of simpler components. By studying these simpler components, the electromagnetic properties of the entire structure can be calculated analytically. This decoupling method dramatically reduces the computation time or memory required for research into the electromagnetic properties of metamaterials. |
