We analyze an S-shaped inclusion for the realization of metamaterials exhibiting left-handed properties. Unlike most conventional inclusions used so far that are composed two separate geometries-typically a split ring and rod-the proposed in this paper is made only one element which yields overlapping negative permittivity permeability response over frequency band about 2.6 GHz. By adopting geometry, we manage to lower down level band, thus allowing occur. Therefore, structure works as stand...
