Removing singular refractive indices with sculpted surfaces
The advent of Transformation Optics established the link between geometry and material properties, and has resulted in a degree of control over electromagnetic fields that was previously impossible. For waves confined to a surface it is known that there is a simpler, but related, geometrical equivalence between the surface shape and the refractive index, and here we demonstrate that conventiona...
متن کاملRemoving Even Crossings on Surfaces
We give a new, topological proof that the weak Hanani-Tutte theorem is true on orientable surfaces and extend the result to nonorientable surfaces. That is, we show that if a graph G cannot be embedded on a surface S, then any drawing of G on S must contain two edges that cross an odd number of times. We apply the result and proof techniques to obtain new and old results about generalized thrac...
متن کاملCritical indices for singular diffusion.
Thus the systems studied by CCGS do seem to be examSandslide or avalanche models were introduced in the work of Bak, Tang, and Wiesenfeld [1]. They looked at the process of adding grains of sand arbitrarily slowly to a model sandpile, and studied the spectrum of avalanches produced by the individual addition events. They suggested that the pile would adjust its slope to a critical value in whic...
متن کاملNon - singular affine surfaces with self - maps
We classify surjective self-maps (of degree at least two) of affine surfaces according to the log Kodaira dimension. In this paper we are interested in the following question. Question. Classify all smooth affine surfaces X/C which admit a proper morphism f : X → X with degree f > 1. In [5] and [18], a classification of smooth projective surfaces with a self-map of degree > 1 has been given. Th...
متن کاملSilica nanorod-array films with very low refractive indices.
The refractive-index contrast is an important figure of merit for dielectric multilayer structures, optical resonators, and photonic crystals. This represents a strong driving force for novel materials that have refractive indices lower than those of conventional optically transparent materials. Silica nanorod-array dielectric films with unprecedented low refractive indices of 1.08 are demonstr...
