what is the procedure for finding the right dielectric material and metal when intending to obtain near zero permeability metamaterial (MNZ)?

06 April 2015 1 10K Report

Differernt papers show the use of different materials for simulations to obtain zero index metamaterial, is there some kind of a guide in choosing the dielectrics and metals?

Are there any ceramics or alloys which have a crystal structure that resembles an octet truss?

I've read somewhere that the octet truss is among the most structurally-stable, weight-bearing structures. I was interested to know if there are any ceramics or alloys which adopt said structure.

In metal diborides (like AlB2, MgB2, TiB2), how many electrons per metal atom does boron need to form the layered hexagonal sheets?

The strangeness of boron as an element is that it generally behaves differently than other members of its family. Instead of acting like a metal typical of group 13, it forms structures that are...
