〈 div class="page" title="Page 1" 〉 〈 div class="layoutArea" 〉 〈 div class="column" 〉 〈 p 〉 〈 span 〉 The paper examines 9858 global publications output on metamaterials research, as covered in Scopus database during 2007-16. The study reveals that metamaterials research registered 15.27% growth and averaged citation impact to 10.08 citations per paper. The global share of top 10 most productive countries in metamaterials research is 84.97 % and their individual global share ranged from 3.30% to 25.57%. China accounted for the largest global share (25.71%), followed by USA (23.96%), U.K. (6.06%), India (5.26%), etc. Five of top 10 countries scored relative citation index above the world average i.e. more than 1: Germany (2.06), USA (1.81), U.K. (1.49), Canada (1.03) and Spain (1.01). The international collaborative publications share of top 10 most productive countries varied from 6.14% to 59.80%. Physics and astronomy, among subjects, contributed the largest publication share (59.36%), followed by engineering (56.71%), materials science (33.30%), computer science (20.32%), mathematics (6.74%) and chemistry (4.46%). The top 20 most productive organisations and authors together contributed 24.69% and 13.17% global publications share respectively and 35.72% and 25.96% global citation share respectively. The top 20 journals accounted for 45.97% share of global output (5743 papers) reported in journals. Of the total global output on metamaterials research, 52 papers were found as highly cited papers averaging 535.64 citations per paper in 10 years. These 52 highly cited papers involved the participation of 310 authors and 142 organisations and were 〈 /span 〉 〈 span 〉 published in 20 journals. 〈 /span 〉 〈 /p 〉 〈 /div 〉 〈 /div 〉 〈 /div 〉
