We theoretically investigate the magnetic response of two-dimensional arrays of superconducting strips, which are regarded as essential structures of dc magnetic metamaterials. We analytically obtain local distributions of the magnetic field for the ideal complete shielding state (i.e., $Lambda/wto 0$, where $2w$ is the strip width, $Lambda=lambda^2/d$ is the Pearl length, $lambda$ is the London penetration depth, and $d$ is the strip thickness), and derive effective permeability by averaging the local field distributions. We also perform numerical calculations for a realistic case, taking finite $Lambda/w>0$ into account. We investigate two types of strip arrays: a rectangular array and a hexagonal array. The resulting effective permeability has large anisotropy that depends on the dimensions and arrangement of the superconducting strips, and the hexagonal array is found to be more advantageous for obtaining large anisotropy than the rectangular array.

We have theoretically investigated the magnetic response of two-dimensional (2D) arrays of superconducting and soft magnetic strips, which are regarded as models of dc magnetic metamaterials. The anisotropy of the macroscopic permeabilities depends o n whether the applied magnetic field is parallel to the wide surface of the strips ($mu_{parallel}$) or perpendicular ($mu_{perp}$). For the 2D arrays of superconducting strips, $0<mu_{perp}/mu_0ll mu_{parallel}/mu_0simeq 1$, whereas for the 2D arrays of soft magnetic strips, $mu_{parallel}/mu_0ggmu_{perp}/mu_0simeq 1$, where $mu_0$ is the vacuum permeability. We also demonstrate that strong anisotropy of the macroscopic permeability can be obtained for hybrid arrays of superconducting and soft magnetic strips, where $mu_{parallel}/mu_0gg 1gg mu_{perp}/mu_0>0$.
We demonstrate theoretically that an array of carbon nanoscrolls acts as a hyperbolic magnetic metamaterial in the THz regime with genuine subwavelength operation corresponding to wavelength-to-structure ratio of about 200. Due to the low sheet resis tance of graphene, the electromagnetic losses in an array of carbon nanoscrolls are almost negligible offering a very sharp magnetic resonance of extreme positive and negative values of the effective magnetic permeability. The latter property leads to superior imaging properties for arrays of carbon nanoscrolls which can operate as magnetic endoscopes in the THz where magnetic materials are scarce. Our optical modelling is supplemented with ab initio density-functional calculations of the self-winding of a single layer of graphene onto a carbon nanotube so as to form a carbon nanoscroll. The latter process is viewed as a means to realize ordered arrays of carbon nanoscrolls in the laboratory based on arrays of aligned carbon nanotubes which are nowadays routinely fabricated.

The complex-field approach is developed to derive analytical expressions of the magnetic field distributions around superconducting strips on ferromagnetic substrates (SC/FM strips). We consider the ferromagnetic substrates as ideal soft magnets with an infinite magnetic permeability, neglecting the ferromagnetic hysteresis. On the basis of the critical state model for a superconducting strip, the ac susceptibility $chi_1+ichi_1$ of a SC/FM strip exposed to a perpendicular ac magnetic field is theoretically investigated, and the results are compared with those for superconducting strips on nonmagnetic substrates (SC/NM strips). The real part $chi_1$ for $H_0/j_cd_sto 0$ (where $H_0$ is the amplitude of the ac magnetic field, $j_c$ is the critical current density, and $d_s$ is the thickness of the superconducting strip) of a SC/FM strip is 3/4 of that of a SC/NM strip. The imaginary part $chi_1$ (or ac loss $Q$) for $H_0/j_cd_s<0.14$ of a SC/FM strip is larger than that of a SC/NM strip, even when the ferromagnetic hysteresis is neglected, and this enhancement of $chi_1$ (or $Q$) is due to the edge effect of the ferromagnetic substrate.
We present an experimental study of two-dimensional superconducting quantum interference filters (2D-SQIFs) in the presence of a magnetic field B. The dependences of the dc voltage on the applied magnetic field are characterized by a unique delta-lik e dip at B=0, which depends on the distribution of the areas of the individual loops, and on the bias current. The voltage span of the dip scales proportional to the number of rows simultaneously operating at the same working point. In addition, the voltage response of the 2D-SQIF is sensitive to a field gradient generated by a control line and superimposed to the homogeneous field coil. This feature opens the possibility to use 2D superconducting quantum interference filters as highly sensitive detectors of spatial gradients of magnetic field.
Superconducting metamaterials are utilized to study the approach to the plasmonic limit simply by tuning temperature to modify the superfluid density, and thus the superfluid plasma frequency. We examine the persistence of artificial magnetism in a m etamaterial made with superconductors in the plasmonic limit, and compare to the electromagnetic behavior of normal metals as a function of frequency as the plasma frequency is approached from below. Spiral-shaped Nb thin film meta-atoms of scaled dimensions are employed to explore the plasmonic behavior in these superconducting metamaterials, and the scaling condition allows extraction of the temperature dependent superfluid density, which is found to be in good agreement with expectations.
