materials or structures whose permittivity is close to zero, so waves inside have nearly uniform phase and can tunnel through narrow channels and bends.

In photonics and optical engineering, epsilon-near-zero refers to materials or structures whose permittivity is close to zero, so waves inside have nearly uniform phase and can tunnel through narrow channels and bends. This meaning comes from Silveirinha (2006) in Physical Review Letters.[1]
