A simple metamaterial-based wide-angle plasmonic absorber is introduced, fabricated, and experimentally characterized using angle-resolved infrared spectroscopy. The metamaterials are prepared by nano-imprint lithography, an attractive…
Electromagnetic (EM) composites have stimulated tremendous fundamental and practical interests owing to their flexible electromagnetic properties and extensive potential engineering applications. Hence, it is necessary to systematically…
Metamaterials are artificially created media, which allow introducing additional degrees of freedom into electromagnetic design by controlling constitutive material parameters. Reconfigurable time-dependent metamaterials can further enlarge…
We review the basic physics behind light interaction with plasmonic nanoparticles. The theoretical foundations of light scattering on one metallic particle (a plasmonic monomer) and two interacting particles (a plasmonic dimer) are…
We predict an optical curtain effect, i.e., formation of a spatially invariant light field as light emerges from a set of periodic metallic nano-objects. The underlying physical mechanism of generation of this unique optical curtain can be…
We demonstrate resonant Faraday polarization rotation in plasmonic arrays of bimetallic nano-ring resonators consisting of Au and Ni sections. This metamaterial design allows to optimize the trade-off between the enhancement of…
Scattering of electromagnetic waves by subwavelength objects is accompanied by the excitation of electric and magnetic Mie resonances, that may modify substantially the scattering intensity and radiation pattern. Scattered fields can be…
The interaction of free electrons with electromagnetic excitation is the fundamental mechanism responsible for ultra-strong confinement of light that, in turn, enables biosensing, near-field microscopy, optical cloaking, sub-wavelength…
The high frequency magnetic permeability of nanocomposite film consisting of the single-domain spherical ferromagnetic particles in the dielectric matrix is studied. The permeability is assumed to be determined by rotation of the…
Topological insulators are innovative materials with semiconducting bulk together with surface states forming a Dirac cone, which ensure metallic conduction in the surface plane. Therefore, topological insulators represent an ideal platform…
Within a simple model Hamiltonian, both superconductivity and metallic ferromagnetism can be understood as arising from lowering of kinetic energy as the ordered state develops, due to a reduction in the carriers effective mass, or…
Dynamic metamolecules (DMMs) are composed of a dielectric core made of hydrogel surrounded by randomly-packed plasmonic beads that can display magnetic resonances when excited by light at optical frequencies. Their optical properties can be…
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…
Motivated by new technologies for designing and tailoring metamaterials, we seek properties for certain classes of nonlinear optical materials that allow room for a reversibly controlled opacity-to-transparency phase transition through the…
A promising approach in designing composite materials with unusual physical behavior combines solid nanostructures and orientationally ordered soft matter at the mesoscale. Such composites not only inherit properties of their constituents…
A recent study of the photonic coupling between metallic nanowires has revealed new degrees of freedom in the system. Unexpected spin torques were induced on dimers when illuminated with linearly polarized plane-waves. As near-field…
This report is concerns with optical nano-antennas in their various forms such as metallic nano-rods, cross-shaped nano-particles and apertures, periodic meta-surfaces such hole arrays and bullseye structures. Their applications in…
This paper investigates the problem of time-harmonic acoustic scattering in an inhomogeneous medium with a complex topological structure. Specifically, the medium is anisotropic and contains several disjoint sound-soft obstacles. This model…
We compare the optical response of isolated nanowires, double-wire systems, and Pi-structures, and show that their radiation is well described in terms of their electric and magnetic dipole moments. We also show that both dielectric…
A plasmonic "molecule" consisting of a radiative element coupled with a sub-radiant (dark) element is theoretically investigated. The plasmonic "molecule" shows close resemblance to the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in an…
