On the epsilon near zero condition for spatially dispersive materials

The epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) condition in natural and artificial plasmas is considered for spatially dispersive materials. In the presence of spatial dispersion the ENZ condition must be judged by vanishing of the electric displacement field in real-space. Unlike the simple case of local materials wh...
