Floppy modes --- deformations that cost zero energy --- are central to the mechanics of a wide class of systems. For disordered systems, such as random networks and particle packings, it is well-understood how the number of floppy modes is…
Space-time varying metamaterials based on uniform-velocity modulation have spurred considerable interest over the past decade. We present here the first extensive investigation of accelerated modulation space-time metamaterials. Using the…
In recent times, three-dimensional (3D) metamaterials have undergone a revolution driven mainly by the popularization of 3D-printing techniques, which has enabled the implementation of modern microwave and photonic devices with advanced…
Recently, it has been experimentally shown by several other researchers in the physics community that a properly designed periodic corrugation of a metallic opaque screen may significantly enhance the power transmission through a…
The ability to change a surface's profile allows biological systems to effectively manipulate and blend into their surroundings. Current surface morphing techniques rely either on having a small number of fixed states or on directly driving…
The wave propagation of edge modes in a superlattice of 2D electron Gases in quantum Hall regime is investigated. After introducing surfaces charge and current densities at the edge, the Maxwell equations are solved for waves running along…
A theory of surface electromagnetic waves in gradient media exhibiting arbitrary surface gradients of dielectric permittivity and magnetic permeability has been developed. Novel low-loss propagating surface wave solutions have been found in…
Fully harnessing the vast design space enabled by metamaterials to control electromagnetic (EM) fields remains an open problem for researchers. Inverse-design techniques have shown to best exploit the degrees of freedom available in design,…
Inspired by the parity-time symmetry concept, we show that a judicious spatial modulation of gain and loss in epsilon-near-zero metamaterials can induce the propagation of exponentially-bound interface modes characterized by zero…
Metamaterials are constructed such that, for a narrow range of frequencies, the momentum density depends on the local displacement gradient, and the stress depends on the local velocity. In these models the momentum density generally…
The research in topological materials and meta-materials reached maturity and is now gradually entering the phase of practical applications and devices. However, scaling down the experimental demonstrations definitely presents a challenge.…
We examine some of the optical properties of a metamaterial consisting of thin layers of alternating metal and dielectric. We can model this material as a homogeneous effective medium with anisotropic dielectric permittivity. When the…
Consider the transverse magnetic polarization of the electromagnetic scattering of a plane wave by a perfectly conducting plane surface, which contains a two-dimensional subwavelength rectangular cavity. The enhancement is investigated…
Optical embedded eigenstates are localized modes of an open structure that are compatible to radiation yet they have infinite lifetime and diverging quality factors. Their realization in nanostructures finite in all dimensions is inherently…
In this work, we study the electrodynamics of metamaterials that consist of resonant non-magnetic inclusions embedded in an epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) host medium. It is shown that the inclusions can be designed in such a way that both the…
A common variant of a metasurface antenna consists of an array of metamaterial elements coupled to a waveguide feed. The guided wave excites the metamaterial elements, coupling energy from the waveguide mode to radiation. Under appropriate…
We present a new electromagnetic mode that forms at the interface between two planar surfaces laid side by side in free space, effectively guiding energy along an infinitesimal, one-dimensional line. It is shown that this mode occurs when…
We study the dispersion of electromagnetic waves in a spatially dispersive metamaterial with Lorentz-like dependence of principal permittivity tensor components on the respective components of the wave vector performing the analysis of…
Periodic structures with subwavelength features are instrumental in the versatile and effective control of electromagnetic waves from radio frequencies up to optics. In this paper, we theoretically evaluate the potential applications and…
In this paper we suggest a simple analytical method for description of electromagnetic properties of a geometrically regular two-dimensional subwavelength arrays (metasurfaces) formed by particles with randomly fluctuating polarizabilities.…
