Numerical Modeling of Periodical Structures
Nešpor, Dušan ; Bartušek, Karel (referee) ; Brančík, Lubomír (referee) ; Fiala, Pavel (advisor)
The thesis discusses the dynamic electromagnetic field on periodic structures. The author focuses on three principal types of resonant structures, considering their application possibilities. In general, these types can be individually defined as follows: materials exhibiting a negative refractive index of the incident electromagnetic wave; structures with gradual changes in impedance, characterised by their usability as reflectionless surfaces; and periodic structures able to conveniently shape the magnetic field distribution. Materials of the third group within the above-shown short list facilitate the fabrication of magnetoinductive lenses for nuclear magnetic resonance. The presented analysis of the properties of periodic resonant structures is mainly based on numerical models utilising the finite element method, and this approach is combined with both the derivation of the corresponding analytical relations and an experimental measurement of the non-radiating component of the electromagnetic field. The thesis includes a physical description of the basic elements of periodic resonant structures. Physical properties of the elements were examined in detail via numerical analysis. In the course of the research, the data acquired through this analysis and the related experimental measurement enabled the author to propose a method for optimising the most widely used resonant structures. Moreover, several new versions of resonant elements, structures, and fabrication techniques were also designed. The results obtained from the numerical analyses carried out to examine the central physical properties of the fabricated structure samples were all verified via the designed method for measuring the non-radiating component of the magnetic field.

Physics of Metamaterials
Láska, Martin ; Kalousek, Radek (referee) ; Dub, Petr (advisor)
The bachelor work deals with electrodynamics of metamaterials for which both the electric permittivity and magnetic permeability are simultaneously negative. It is shown that the double negative media are described by a negative refraction index which has an important impact on optics laws. In particular, the negative refraction is demonstrated by simulation of interaction of the Gauss monochromatic beam impinging on a negative refractive material. Next, the electromagnetic energy propagation in the negative refractive materials is studied. It is shown that the energy propagation velocity equals the group velocity, which has the opposite sign than the phase velocity. Finally, Fresnel formulas valid both for positive and negative refraction index are given.

Analysis of an Electromagnetic Wave on the Boundary between Electromagnetic Materials
Kadlec, Radim ; Lazar, Josef (referee) ; Macháč, Jan (referee) ; Kroutilová, Eva (advisor)
The proposed dissertation thesis contains an analysis of conditions on the boundary between layers having varied electromagnetic properties. The research is performed using consistent theoretical derivation of analytical formulas, and the underlying problem is considered also in view of multiple boundaries including the effect of the propagation of electromagnetic waves having different instantaneous speed. The author presents a survey and formulation of the basic characteristics of methods used for electromagnetic wave propagation analysis; in this respect, special emphasis is placed on radial models. The processing of the topic involved the designing and verification (using a set of different, layered planar materials) of algorithms to analyze the electromagnetic field components. The algorithm was assembled to enable simple evaluation of all components of the electromagnetic field in relation to the speed of the wave propagation in a heterogeneous environment. The proposed algorithms are compared by means of different numerical methods for the modelling of electromagnetic waves on the boundary between materials; moreover, electromagnetic field components in common points of the model were also subject to comparison. When in conjunction with tools facilitating the analysis of material response to the source of a continuous signal, the algorithms constitute a supplementary instrument for the design of a layered material. Such design enables the realization of, for example, recoilless plane, recoilless transition between different types of environment, and filters for both optical and radio frequencies.

A Brief Design of Optical Resonators
Hubík, Daniel ; Nešpor, Dušan (referee) ; Kadlec, Radim (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is focused on analysis of split-ring resonators in THz region. Simulations were made by finite elements method and by finite-difference time-domain method. At first we created a resonating structure that works in GHz region. Then we were observing a dependence of movement of resonant frequency on the size of resonator. In the final chapter we assigned frequency dependent values of permitivity to such structure. As the result we simulated working resonator at frequency 500THz. All simulations have been made in program HFSS ANSYS and Lumerical FDTD Solutions.

Effect of polymer type on the properties of 3D printed auxetic structures
Zbíral, Roman ; Štaffová, Martina (referee) ; Jančář, Josef (advisor)
This thesis deals with special structures such as optical, acoustic and mechanic metamaterials, which has their own specific properties. Auxetic materials as subgroup of mechanical metamaterials has its own special arrangement of sub-cells, that is bound to negative Poisson’s ratio. With mechanical load auxetic materials change its own density, geometry of structure and in thrust only change its internal structure instead of breaking. Most of these materials are made using additive technologies such as 3D print which allows better quality of produced structure and are made of special polymers which provide expected properties.

Magneto-optical study of the dynamic properties of magnetic nanostructures and nanostructured metamaterials
Flajšman, Lukáš ; Chumak, Andrii (referee) ; Revelosona, Dafiné (referee) ; Spousta, Jiří (advisor)
Magnonika je novým odvětvím výzkumu, který se zabývá fyzikou spinových vln. Magnonika jako vědní obor nabízí nové možnosti například v nediskrétních výpočtech na základě vlnového charakteru spinových vln. Při výrobě magnonických prvků klasickými metodami není možné příliš měnit charakter materiálů, ze kterých jsou jednotlivé prvky vyrobeny. Tento fakt silně omezuje univerzálnost vyrobených struktur. Cílem této práce je aplikovat nový typ materiálu do oboru magnoniky. Specifikum daného materiálu je možnost zápisu magnetických struktur pomocí iontového svazku. Ukazuje se, že tyto struktury mají velice zajímavé magnetické vlastnosti, které lze velice přesně řídit právě strategií ozařování iontovým svazkem. Na základě fázově rozlišené Brillouinovy spektroskopie jsme získali disperzní relaci spinových vln v tomto systému a tím i důležité parametry systému. Pozorování podkládáme mikromagnetickými simulacemi a analytickými modely. Vlastnosti systému pro magnonické aplikace prezentujeme na třech prototypických sadách struktur, které nelze vyrobit pomocí klasických materiálů.

Effects of material and 3D printing technology on the properties of auxetic structures
Kuchtová, Štěpánka ; Žídek, Jan (referee) ; Jančář, Josef (advisor)
This thesis deals with the behaviour of auxetic structures. In particular, the focus is on the effect of the 3D printer, material filament and number of unit cells on the deformation response of auxetics. Specimens were prepared on two printers with a direct and a bowden extruder made of PET-G (polyethylene terephthalate glycol) and TPU (thermoplastic polyether polyurethane) materials. The prepared structures were subjected to a static compression test, during which video recordings were taken. From the video recordings the Poisson's ratio and porosity of the samples were subsequently evaluated. A software application was written in Python programming language to evaluate the Poisson's ratio and porosity. The type of 3D printer had a significant effect on the properties of the prepared auxetic structures. The specimens prepared by the bowden extruder printer exhibited lower stiffness and yield strength and higher Poisson's ratio compared to the samples prepared by the direct extruder printer. Furthermore, the influence of the number of unit cells and influence of the material with low (TPU) and high (PET-G) elastic modulus on the auxetic behaviour was investigated. In the case of the flexible material, specimens with fewer unit cells exhibited tougher response, whereas the opposite was true for PET-G. At the same time, attention was paid to the deformation response of single cells within the sample, where TPU exhibited a different deformation behaviour mechanism than PET-G. This has been reflected in different spatial distribution of auxetic behaviour within the specimens.
