Homogenization near resonances and artificial magnetism from dielectrics
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Volume 339 (2004) no. 5, pp. 377-382.

The homogenization of periodic dielectric structures in harmonic regime usually leads to an effective permittivity tensor ɛeff. It has been observed by Bouchitté and Felbacq [Waves Random Media 7 (1997) 245–256], that in the high contrast case (high conductivity fibers), this tensor depends on the angular frequency ω. In this Note, we enlight a new effect induced by microscopic resonances which leads in parallel to a possibly negative effective permeability μeff(ω) (although the original medium is assumed to be nonmagnetic i.e. μ=1).

L'homogénéisation de structures diélectriques périodiques en régime harmonique fait apparaitre en général un tenseur de permittivité effective ɛeff. Il a été remarqué par Bouchitté et Felbacq [Waves Random Media 7 (1997) 245–256] que dans le cas de forts contrastes (fibres de grande conductivité), ce tenseur peut dépendre de la fréquence ω. Dans cette note, nous mettons en évidence un effet nouveau dû à des micro-résonances et qui conduit, malgré l'absence initiale de propriétés magnétiques (i.e. μ=1), à une perméabilité effective μeff(ω) qui peut éventuellement être négative.
