Abstract A volumetric metallic metamaterial structure with a cubic unit cell is introduced. The unit cells can naturally fill all of space without additional substrates or waveguides. The structure can support a negative longitudinal electric mode that can couple to an electron beam. The dispersion characteristics of the unit cell are modeled by the effective medium theory with spatial dispersion. The theory also predicts the correct resonant frequencies of the emitted radiation excited by an electron beam traversing the structure. In the wakefield simulations, a backward radiation pattern is observed. The proposed metamaterial can be applied to beam diagnostics and wakefield acceleration.
