Summary:A novel miniaturized zeroth‐order resonator (ZOR) using a simplified composite right/left‐handed transmission line structure is proposed. The ZOR consists of only microstrip line and grounded stub. Compared with the conventional half‐wavelength resonator, the superiority of the ZOR proposed here mainly lies in its compact size. In addition, it is easy to tune the zeroth‐order resonant frequency, thanks to its simple structure and easy fabrication. The full‐wave simulation and experiment are carried out on a four‐cell ZOR and a one‐cell ZOR. A good agreement between the simulated and experimental results verifies that the proposed method is feasible. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
