Abstrakt: The measurement of the negative effective permittivity and permeability of a material is a direct way to verify its left-handed properties. In this paper, a transmission experiment for a left-handed material (LHM) sample is performed in a parallel plate waveguide. The effective frequency dispersive permittivity and permeability are retrieved from the experimental scattering data and found to be simultaneously negative in a specific frequency range. The simulation results also show that the misalignments of the metallic inclusions of the LHM introduce some dips to the retrieved curves, which prevent us from obtaining ideal curves following the Lorentz or Drude model.
