Outline of Final Research Achievements

We proposed and experimentally achieved “meta-plasmas,” which include various size levels of particles and/or constituents as flexible composites with charges, and they exhibit functional outputs as electromagnetic-wave media. We performed diagnostics of frequency spectra from kHz to infrared rays, and verified the concept of meta-plasmas with multiscale properties and extraordinarily-wide frequency dispersions.
