Metamaterials are a new form of structured materials used to control
electromagnetic waves through localized resonances. In this talk we
introduce a rigorous mathematical framework for controlling localized
resonances and predicting exotic behavior inside optical metamaterials.
The theory is multiscale in nature and provides a rational basis for
designing microstructure using multiphase nonmagnetic materials to create
backward wave behavior across prescribed frequency ranges.
