متن کاملSign of the refractive index in a gain medium with negative permittivity and permeability
We show how the sign of the refractive index in any medium may be derived using a rigorous analysis based on Einstein causality. In particular, we consider left-handed materials, i.e., media that have negative permittivities and permeabilities at the frequency of interest. We find that the consideration of gain in such media can give rise to a positive refractive index. © 2006 Optical Society o...
متن کاملNegative refractive index in coaxial plasmon waveguides.
We theoretically show that coaxial waveguides composed of a metallic core, surrounded by a dielectric cylinder and clad by a metal outer layer exhibit negative refractive index modes over a broad spectral range in the visible. For narrow dielectric gaps (10 nm GaP embedded in Ag) a figure-of-merit of 18 can be achieved at lambda(0) = 460 nm. For larger dielectric gaps the negative index spectra...
متن کاملGuided modes in negative-refractive-index waveguides.
We study linear guided waves propagating in a slab waveguide made up of a negative-refractive-index material, the so-called left-handed waveguide. We reveal that the guided waves in left-handed waveguides possess a number of peculiar properties such as the absence of the fundamental modes, mode double degeneracy, and sign-varying energy flux. In particular, we predict the guided waves with a di...
متن کاملMetrics for negative-refractive-index materials.
The importance of loss in the field solution for left-handed media, and in particular, the impact on what would otherwise be a purely evanescent field, is addressed. Using an equivalent electric current source, field solutions are constructed in semi-infinite and finite thickness left-handed media. In the slab case, field growth and power dissipation metrics with uniform amplitude and uniform p...
