Abstract
An artificial material with anisotropic property that acts as a zero-index material (ZIM) is presented in this paper. The effectiveness of proposed structure as a ZIM is established and the use of the same for gain enhancement of Vivaldi antenna (VA) is done. Gain enhancement is achieved without altering the reflection and radiation characteristics of the antenna
