Volume-Preserving Deformation of Honeycomb Wire Media Enables Broad Plasma Frequency Tunability
arXiv:2507.08156 · doi:10.1103/3ktb-4f8p
Abstract
We demonstrate significant tunability of the plasma frequency in a wire medium by mechanically deforming a lattice of parallel metallic wires arranged at the nodes of a honeycomb structure. Numerical simulations predict up to 78% tunability and a proof-of-concept experiment confirms 64%, surpassing previously reported values for tunable wire media.
