Abstract

Metamaterials, traditionally in the form of artificial structures with surprising electromagnetic properties, have triggered unprecedented opportunities to achieve those fascinating applications that previously only exist in science-fiction works, for example, Harry Potter’s cloak. Nevertheless, their massive manufacturing costs incurred by their complicated structures restrict the scale-up and mass production. The ultimate properties are primarily (if not solely) determined by the intrinsic structures of metamaterials that make them merely ‘meta-structures’. In response to these issues, it is desirable to have a genuine engineering composite yet with metamaterial characteristics. Thus, ‘metacomposite’ has been proposed to account for a real piece of composite material. This has subsequently become a nascent area where metamaterial properties are attained under wider operating frequencies with certain tunability towards external magnetic fields or mechanical stresses. In this chapter, we start with an overview of metacomposites containing various dielectric and/or magnetic fillers following the fillers’ dimensions from 0D, 1D to 2D. We then critically discussed some progresses in metacomposites containing ferromagnetic microwires together with unparalleled advantages in microwave sensing and cloaking areas. Finally, the chapter is closed with an outlook of strategies for improving existing metacomposites and some future perspectives.
