Spatial coordinate transformation is used as a reliable tool to control electromagnetic fields. In this paper, we derive the permeability and permittivity tensors of a metamaterial able to transform an isotropically radiating source into a…

A combination of gap waveguide technology and the traditional coplanar waveguide is studied in detail and demonstrated experimentally for the first time. This novel metamaterial transmission line is presented in three different…

We investigate the emission of electromagnetic waves from biaxial subwavelength metamaterials. For tunable anisotropic structures that exhibit a vanishing dielectric response along a given axis, we find remarkable variation in the launch…

We study theoretically and experimentally how to reduce the backscattering of water waves in a channel with multiple turns. We show that it is not only possible to cancel backscattering but also to achieve a remarkable transmission in such…

Controlling the electromagnetic properties of materials beyond those achievable with natural substances has become a reality with the advent of metamaterials, artificially designed materials offering a wide range of unusual physical…

Flexible mechanical metamaterials are compliant structures engineered to achieve unique properties via the large deformation of their components. While their static character has been studied extensively, the study of their dynamic…

We are interested in a time harmonic acoustic problem in a waveguide with locally perturbed sound hard walls. We consider a setting where an observer generates incident plane waves at $-\infty$ and probes the resulting scattered field at…

We present a detailed study of light propagation in waveguides with anisotropic metamaterial cores. We demonstrate that in contrast to conventional optical fibers, our structures support free-space-like propagating modes even when the…

Complete control of electromagnetic fields requires particles that exhibit bianisotropic constituent parameters (i.e. permittivity, permeability, and chirality). Here, methods to analyze and synthesize two-dimensional, bianisotropic…

We propose a leaky optical waveguide achieved with a uniaxially anisotropic metamaterial that supports both forward and backward leaky waves. The backward leaky nature is exploited in a sub-diffraction imaging system.

With the explosion of wireless networks and automotive radar systems, there is an acute need for new materials and technologies that would not only minimize the size of these devices, but also enhance their performances. The technique of…

Strongly anisotropic media where the principal components of electric permittivity or magnetic permeability tensors have opposite signs are termed as hyperbolic media. Such media support propagating electromagnetic waves with extremely…

A one-dimensional wave propagation through elastically asymmetric media is investigated. A class of metamaterials possessing an arbitrary elastic asymmetry is proposed. This asymmetry results in different wave speeds of tensile and…

Near-zero-refractive index materials display unique optical properties such as perfect transmission through distorted waveguides, cloaking, and inhibited diffraction. Compared to conventional media, they can fundamentally behave differently…

We investigate the wave propagation in the anisotropic metamaterial with single-sheeted hyperboloid dispersion relation. Based on boundary conditions and dispersion relations, we find that the opposite amphoteric refraction, such that E-…

This paper investigates the dispersion characteristics of a highly anisotropic metamaterial comprised of metal square patches arranged in a glide symmetry pattern and submerged in vacuum. Theoretical formulas are proposed to describe the…

We demonstrate that a strong asymmetric transmission for forward and backward propagation of tilted circular polarized optical waves is supported by ultrathin epsilon-near-zero hyperbolic slabs. We find that, remarkably, this effect is…

Epsilon near zero (ENZ) conditions have been observed to enhance superconducting properties of a composite metamaterial based on random mixing of superconductor and ferroelectic nanoparticles. Here we analyse several other promising…

We examine several ways to manipulate the loss in electromagnetic cloaks, based on transformation electromagnetics. It is found that, by utilizing inherent electric and magnetic losses of metamaterials, perfect wave absorption can be…

Metamaterials and metasurfaces are designed by periodically arranged subwavelength geometries, allowing a tailored manipulation of the electromagnetic response of matter. Here, we exploit temporal variations of permittivity inside…
