Abstract
In this work we present a review of the current state of the discussion about physical properties of the left-handed metamaterials together with simulation results. This kind of materials have been studied recently due to some non-intuitive behavior that some physicists argued they possess. Using a Finite-Difference Time-Domain Method (PDTD) together with a Perfectly-Matched Layer (PML) for the domain's truncation, we were able to generate animated outputs that clarify what can and what cannot be achieved by those materials.
