Abstract: A method is given for creating material with a desired refraction coefficient. The method consists of embedding into a material with known refraction coefficient many small particles of size $a$. The number of particles per unit volume around any point is prescribed, the distance between neighboring particles is $O(a^{frac2-kappa3})$ as $ao0$, $0<kappa<1$ is a fixed parameter. The total number of the embedded particle is $O(a^{kappa-2})$. The physical properties of the particles are described by the boundary impedance $zet{a}_m$ of the $m-th$ particle, $zet{a}_m=O(a^{-kappa})$ as $ao0$. The refraction coefficient is the coefficient $n^2(x)$ in the wave equation $[abl{a}^2+k^2{n}^2(x)]u=0$.
