Space-time-varying materials pledge to deliver nonreciprocal dispersion in linear systems by inducing an artificial momentum bias. Although such a paradigm eliminates the need for actual motion of the medium, experimental realization of…
As time can be introduced as an additional degree of freedom, temporal metamaterials nowadays open up new avenues for wave control and manipulation. Among these advancements, temporal metamaterial-based antireflection coatings have recently…
Temporal metamaterials have been recently exploited as a novel platform for conceiving several electromagnetic and optical devices based on the anomalous scattering response arising at a single or multiple sudden changes of the material…
Nonlocality is a fundamental concept in photonics. For instance, nonlocal wave-matter interactions in spatially modulated metamaterials enable novel effects, such as giant electromagnetic chirality, artificial magnetism, and negative…
Metamaterials can enable peculiar static and dynamic behavior (such as negative effective mass density, dynamical stiffness, and Poisson's ratio) due to their geometry rather than their chemical composition. The geometry of these…
Metamaterials are artificially engineered structures that manipulate electromagnetic waves, having optical properties absent in natural materials. Recently, machine learning for the inverse design of metamaterials has drawn attention.…
By designing tailor-made resonance modes with structured atoms, metamaterials allow us to obtain constitutive parameters outside their limited range from natural or composite materials. Nonetheless, tuning the constitutive parameters relies…
We investigate a class of multilayered metamaterials characterized by moderate-index inclusions and low average permittivity. Via first-principle calculations, we show that in such scenario first- and second-order spatial dispersion effects…
Metasurfaces impart phase discontinuities on impinging electromagnetic waves that are typically limited to 0-2$\pi$. Here, we show that they can break free from this limitation and supply arbitrarily-large phase modulation over ultra-wide…
The design of band-gap metamaterials, i.e., metamaterials with the capability to inhibit wave propagation of a specific frequency range, has numerous potential engineering applications, such as acoustic filters and vibration isolation…
All metamaterial applications are based upon the idea that extreme material properties can be achieved through appropriate dynamic homogenization of composites. This homogenization is almost always done for infinite domains and the results…
Recent experiments on temporal reflection in transmission line metamaterials and theoretical treatments of dispersive time-varying media have unearthed the fundamental role of modulation mechanisms on the interface conditions, underpinning…
A method is described for the determination of the effective electromagnetic parameters of a metamaterial based only on external measurements or simulations, taking boundary effects at the interfaces between a conventional material and…
Topological metamaterials unlock confined and robust elastic wave control in mechanical structures. Recent breakthroughs have precipitated the development of 3D topological mechanical metamaterials, which extend beyond the conventional 1D…
Metamaterials are arrangement of basic building blocks that repeat in space, time, or both. These material systems serve as an excellent platform for controlling waves, such as engineering wavenumber band gaps, flat bands, and…
Metamaterials are artificial composite structures designed for controlling waves or fields, and exhibit interaction phenomena that are unexpected on the basis of their chemical constituents. These phenomena are encoded in effective material…
Nanostructures with one-dimensional periodicity, such as multilayered structures, are currently in the focus of active research in the context of hyperbolic metamaterials and photonic topological structures. An efficient way to describe the…
Temporal metamaterials, created by modulating the refractive index in time, offer powerful means of controlling wave propagation but still lack a systematic design methodology. Here, we develop an analytic inverse-design framework rooted in…
We investigate elastic-wave propagation in a spatially-dispersive multilayered, totally passive metamaterial system. At oblique incidence a longitudinal (acoustic) wave can convert to transverse in the solid material comprising the layers,…
In this paper we derive, by means of a suitable least action principle, the duality jump conditions to be imposed at surfaces of discontinuity of the material properties in non-dissipative, linear-elastic, isotropic, Mindlin's and relaxed…
