Non-magnetic negative-refraction systems for terahertz and far-infrared frequencies

Optics 2012-01-26 v2 Materials Science

Abstract

We demonstrate that homogeneous naturally-occurring materials can form non-magnetic negative refractive index systems, and present specific realizations of the proposed approach for the THz and far-IR frequencies. The proposed structure operates away from resonance, thereby promising the capacity for low-loss devices.
