We have fabricated a quarter-wave plate from a single layer birefringent metamaterial. For comparison, an appropriately scaled double layer meanderline structure was fabricated. At the design frequency of 639 GHz, the metamaterial structure…
Refraction and diffraction of waves in natural crystals and artificial crystals formed by anisotropically scattering centers are considered. A detailed study of the electromagnetic wave refraction in a two-dimensional photonic crystal…
Phase reversal occurs in the propagation of an electromagnetic wave in a negatively refracting medium or a phase-conjugate interface. Here we report the experimental observation of phase reversal diffraction without the above devices. Our…
Whereas Cantor multilayers made of an isotropic dielectric-magnetic material with positive refractive index will show power-law characteristics, low-order Cantor multilayers made of materials with negative refractive index will not exhibit…
We report here the designing of optically-nonactive metamaterial by assembling metallic helices with different chirality. With linearly polarized incident light, pure electric or magnetic resonance can be selectively realized, which leads…
The regular spatial filters comprised of lens and pinhole are essential component in high power laser systems, such as lasers for inertial confinement fusion, nonlinear optical technology and directed-energy weapon. On the other hand the…
When a charged particle moves nearby a spatially inhomogeneous condensed medium or inside it, different types of radiation may arise: Diffraction radiation (DR), Smith-Purcell radiation (SPR), Transition radiation (TR), Cherenkov radiation…
Casimir-Polder interaction energies between a point anisotropically polarizable atom and an annular dielectric are shown to exhibit localized repulsive long-range forces in specific configurations. We show that when the atom is positioned…
Ferroelectricity is usually found in compound materials composed by different elements. Here, based on first-principles calculations, we reveal the first example of spontaneous electrical polarization and ferroelectricity in stable…
Diffraction of elastic waves is considered for a system consisting of two parallel arrays of thin (subwavelength) cylinders that are arranged periodically. The embedding media supports waves with all polarizations, one longitudinal and two…
It has recently been shown that periodic layered media can reflect strongly for all incident angles and polarizations in a given frequency range. The standard treatment gets these band gaps from an eigenvalue equation for the Bloch factor…
We show that the angular range of the transmission through magnetic barrier structures can be efficiently controlled in single-layer and bilayer graphenes and this renders the structure's efficient wavevector filters. As the number of…
(Electric) polarization tensors describe part of the leading order term of asymptotic voltage perturbations caused by low volume fraction inhomogeneities of the electrical properties of a medium. They depend on the geometry of the support…
The instrumental polarization induced by a flat isotropic dielectric slab in microwave frequencies is faced. We find that, in spite of its isotropic nature, such a dielectric can produce spurious polarization either by transmitting incoming…
The properties of artificial isotropic microwave composites which would possess simultaneously negative permittivity and permeability are studied theoretically. Four kinds of composites are considered. Two of them concern media with…
Unidirectional (chiral) emission of light from a circular dipole emitter into a waveguide is only possible at points of perfect circular polarisation (C points), with elliptical polarisations yielding a lower directional contrast. However,…
We consider anti-plane shear deformations of an incompressible elastic solid whose reference configuration is an infinite cylinder with a cross section that is unbounded in one direction. For a class of generalized neo-Hookean strain energy…
A new mechanism of Bragg reflection is identified, one that, remarkably, occurs in a uniform medium and relies on resonant tuning of the medium's parameters. Due to uniformity, reflection ensues over a broad wavelength range, much like a…
A full-wave numerical scheme of polarisability tensors evaluation is presented. The method accepts highly conducting bodies of arbitrary shape and explicitly accounts for the radiation as well as ohmic losses. The method is verified on…
The dielectric response of materials underpins electronics and photonics. Established semiconductor materials have a narrow range of dielectric susceptibility, with low-frequency values on the order of 10. Strong and variable dielectric…
