An analytical model for homogenization of Metamaterials (MM) with interacting Metaatoms (MA) is developed based on multipole approach for bulk media. The interaction is assumed to be near field type. i.e. no retardation in lateral direction…
Classical theory of crystals states that a medium to be considered homogeneous must satisfy the following requirements: a) the dimension of the elementary cell must be much smaller than the incident wavelength; b) the sample must contain a…
Although the invention of the metamaterials has stimulated the interest of many researchers and possesses many important applications, the basic design idea is very simple: composing effective media from many small structured elements and…
In this work, we develop a new systematic and self-consistent approach to homogenize arbitrary non-magnetic periodic metamaterials. The proposed method does not rely on the solution of an eigenvalue problem and can fully characterize the…
Dispersion properties of electromagnetic crystals formed by small uniaxial resonant scatterers (magnetic or electric) are studied using the local field approach. The goal of the study is to determine the conditions under which the…
We develop, from first principles, a general and compact formalism for predicting the electromagnetic response of a metamaterial with non-magnetic inclusions in the long wavelength limit, including spatial dispersion up to the second order.…
The homogenization of a metamaterial made of a collection of scatterers periodically disposed is studied from three different points of view. Specifically tools for multiple scattering theory, functional analysis, differential geometry and…
We consider conditions under which photonic crystals (PCs) can be homogenized in the higher photonic bands and, in particular, near the $\Gamma$-point. By homogenization we mean introducing some effective local parameters $\epsilon_{\rm…
We extend an efficient homogenization procedure based on a Haydock representation of the microscopic wave operator for the calculation of the macroscopic dielectric response of a periodic composite to the case of an arbitrary number of…
In the homogenization of composite metamaterials the role played by the relative positions of the wires and resonators is not well understood, though essential. We present a general argument which shows that the homogenization of such…
We derive from first principles an accurate homogenized description of periodic metamaterials made of magnetodielectric inclusions, highlighting and overcoming relevant limitations of standard homogenization methods. We obtain closed-form…
The paper extends and enhances in several ways the recently proposed homogenization theory of metamaterials [J. Opt. Soc. Am. B 28, 577 (2011)]. The theory is based on a direct analysis of fields in the lattice cells rather than on an…
After the prediction that strong enough optical activity may result in negative refraction and negative reflection, more and more artificial chiral metamaterials were designed and fabricated at difference frequency ranges from microwaves to…
Within the paradigm of metamaterials and metasurfaces, electromagnetic properties of composite materials can be engineered by shaping or modulating their constituents, so-called meta-atoms. Synthesis and analysis of complex-shape meta-atoms…
Anisotropic homogeneous metamaterials that are neither wholly dissipative nor wholly active at a specific frequency are permitted by classical electromagnetic theory. Well-established homogenization formalisms indicate that such a…
When used in bulk applications, mechanical metamaterials set forth a multiscale problem with many orders of magnitude in scale separation between the micro and macro scales. However, mechanical metamaterials fall outside conventional…
We study theoretically the concept of homogenization in optics using an ensemble of randomly distributed resonant stationary atoms with density $\rho$. The ensemble is dense enough for the usual condition for homogenization, viz.…
It is shown, for the first time, that negative refraction with positive phase velocity refraction can be realized (and controlled) over a wide range of frequency on the first (lowest) pass band of simple photonic and phononic crystals.…
We study theoretically and experimentally a novel type of metamaterial with hybrid elements composed of twisted pairs of cross-shaped meta-atoms and their complements. We reveal that such two-layer metasurfaces demonstrate large,…
All-dielectric metamaterials consisting of high-dielectric inclusions in a low-dielectric matrix are considered as a low-loss alternative to resonant metal-based metamaterials. In this contribution we investigate the applicability of the…
