Labyrinthine unit cells have been around for many years and have been central to the design of many metamaterial solutions. However, the literature does not present a reproducible analytical model to predict their behaviour both in transmission and reflection, thus limiting design optimisation in terms of bandwidth of operation and space occupied. In this work, we present an analytical model based on the transfer matrix method for the phase shift of the transmission/reflection labyrinthine unit cells. we validate our model using Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations—using a commercial software—and experimental measurements. We discuss the limitations of our approach and the perspectives opened by it. |
