Abstract
The isotropic-like fishnet metamaterial with an array of cross-shaped holes penetrating
through the multiple layers has been numerically studied in the terahertz regime. Its left-
handed properties are described by the retrieved effect media parameters and validated by the
simulation of a wedge-shaped model. The influences of the various geometrical parameters
on the electromagnetic response and the left-handed performance are investigated. This
isotropic-like fishnet metamaterial has the advantage of lower losses and higher transmission
and holds potential for further applications at higher frequencies.

Citation Excerpt :
…Bisbenzocyclobutene (BCB) based polymers [1] have found numerous applications in micro- and
optoelectronics, as interlayer dielectric materials [2,3], wafer-level adhesive bonding materials [4,5], gate
materials for organic field effect transistors [6–8], in biosensors components [9], and as possible
candidates for terahertz waveguides [10] and metamaterials components [11].…

…However, they are not well suited at THz frequencies because the negative indexes are not easy to be
achieved under normal incidence of the THz wave. (Driscoll et al., 2007; Ding et al., 2009). The design of
metamaterials mentioned above have some disadvantages when they are used in the solar cell
applications.…

…Similar investigations can be found in literature [6–21]. Regarding the operation frequency, there are
but a few studies dealing with THz fishnet MTMs in the literature, a lack which provides a motivation
for the present study [16,20]. Of the few existing studies, Ref. [16] considers a structure which is not
simple as in our case, and the dielectric substrate between the metals is perforated which costs
additional effort in the fabrication process.…
