How do they result in the negative permeability at a macro level?
(either of explanation or decent links will do!)
Thanks

The working principle of split ring resonators is based on the phenomenon of electromagnetic resonance, which occurs when an external electromagnetic field at a specific frequency induces a circulating current in a conductor. In split ring resonators, the conductor is split into two halves with a small gap, creating an LC circuit that can resonate at a specific frequency.
Split ring resonators affect electromagnetic waves by creating a strong magnetic response at a specific frequency. This can be used to manipulate and control the propagation of electromagnetic waves, such as in the design of metamaterials for advanced imaging and communication technologies.
Split ring resonators have a wide range of applications, including in microwave and radio frequency technologies, where they are used to create filters, antennas, and sensors. They are also being explored for use in optical devices, such as for enhancing the performance of solar cells and creating new types of lenses.
Yes, split ring resonators can be used for wireless power transfer. By designing the resonant frequency of the split ring resonator to match the frequency of the external power source, the resonator can efficiently absorb and transfer the energy to a nearby receiver. This technology has potential applications in wireless charging for electronic devices and inductive power transfer for electric vehicles.
One limitation of split ring resonators is that they only work at a specific resonant frequency, which can be a disadvantage in applications where a wider range of frequencies needs to be manipulated. Additionally, the performance of split ring resonators can be affected by environmental factors, such as temperature and humidity, which can alter the resonant frequency and decrease their efficiency.
