When I simulate a medium with a n isotropic static negative permittivity, all field values and flux spectra are NaN. I've found a few discussion threads reporting similar issues but none of them were answered or properly resolved.

This is explained in the Meep FAQ:

Short answer: it has nothing to do with Meep, and everything to do with Maxwell's equations. Nondispersive negative permittivity leads to exponentially growing fields.
