Electromagnetic metasurfaces (MTS), also referred to as Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) in their dynamic form, have the potential to actively shape the wireless communication environment, particularly in 5G and 6G systems. They help overcome significant path loss issues, especially at millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequencies within the FR2 band. Our study focuses on MTS from a fabrication standpoint, highlighting the microfabrication methods employed to create a static and passive MTS prototype on a 6′′-optically transparent wafer substrate. This MTS design is intended for integration onto large glass surfaces commonly found in urban settings.
