The paper considers an opportunity for the creation of an artificial two-component metamaterial with a negative refractive index within the radio and optical frequency band, which possesses a spatial dispersion. It is shown that there…
An effective medium model is developed for disordered metamaterials containing a spatially random distribution of dielectric spheres. Similar to effective medium models for ordered metamaterials, this model predicts resonances in the…
We demonstrate experimentally and numerically that nonplanar chiral metamaterials give giant optical activity, circular dichroism, and negative refractive index. The transmission, reflection, and the retrieval results of the experiments…
We have made measurements of microwave transmission over the 12 - 18 GHz range and through a simple metamaterial exhibiting a negative index of refraction. The metamaterial consisted of an array of wires cladded in dielectric embedded in a…
We present a numerical study of the electromagnetic response of the metamaterial elements that are usedto construct materials with negative refractive index. For an array of split ring resonators (SRR) we find that the resonant behavior of…
This work is concerned with the experimental demonstration of a dual-band negative index metamaterial. The sample is double-negative (showing both a negative effective permeability and a negative effective permittivity) for wavelengths…
We show that applying the Lorentz-Lorenz transformation to the refractive index of metals, semiconductors and insulators allows for a less empirical modeling of this refractive index.
We identify a route towards achieving a negative index of refraction at optical frequencies based on coupling between plasmonic waveguides that support backwards waves. We show how modal symmetry can be exploited in metal-dielectric…
In this paper, we show that the linear dielectrics and magnetic materials in matter obey a special kind of mathematical property known as Ces\`{a}ro convergence. Then, we also show that the analytical continuation of the linear permittivity…
We develop a new approach to build a material with negative refraction index. In contrast to conventional designs which make use of a resonant behavior to achieve a non-zero magnetic response, our material is intrinsically non-magnetic and…
The extraordinary properties of resonant four-wave mixing of backward waves in doped negative-index materials are investigated. The feasibility of independent engineering of negative refractive index and nonlinear optical response as well…
Metamaterials are effectively homogeneous materials that display extraordinary dispersion. Negative index metamaterials, zero index metamaterials and extremely anisotropic metamaterials are just a few examples. Instead of using locally…
We discuss the feasibility of negative refraction with reduced absorption in coherently driven atomic media. Coherent coupling of an electric and a magnetic dipole transition by laser fields induces magneto-electric cross-coupling and…
Negative indices are revisited through the thin-film admittance formalism. Effective indices and phase delay associated with wave propagation through negative index layers are carefully defined and computational rules easily implementable…
Electromagnetic metamaterials, made from arrangements of subwavelength sized structures, can be used to manipulate radiation. Designing metamaterials that have a positive refractive index along one axis and a negative refractive index along…
We further miniaturize a recently established silver-based negative-index metamaterial design. By comparing transmittance, reflectance and phase-sensitive time-of-flight experiments to theory, we infer a real part of the refractive index of…
We consider some nonlinear phenomena in metamaterials with negative refractive index properties. Our consideration includes a survey of previously known results as well as identification of the phenomena that are important for applications…
Metamaterials offer unprecedented flexibility for manipulating the optical properties of matter, including the ability to access negative index, ultra-high index and chiral optical properties. Recently, metamaterials with near-zero…
Artificial magnetism, negative permeability and negative refractive index are demonstrated in 3D-chiral metamaterial that shows giant polarization rotation and circular dichroism.
Rigourous calculations of the imaging properties of metamaterials consisting of metal-coated semiconductor nanoparticles are presented. In particular, it is shown that under proper choice of geometric and materials parameters, arrays of…
