The design of magnetic materials can be achieved with artificial magne
tic molecules formed by electrically small loop antennas loaded with p
assive electrical circuit elements. A time derivative Lorentz material
response is achieved with a series resistor and capacitor load. It is
shown that the parameters of this magnetic molecule can be selected t
o yield a time derivative Lorentz material that acts as a highly condu
cting magnetic wall. (C) 1997 American Institute of Physics.
