3D isotropic metamaterial design using smart transformation optics
We introduce new design method for 3D isotropic transformation optics device using smart transformation optics. In 2 dimension smart transformation optics, elastic deformation satisfied quasi-conformal transformation with negative Poisson’s ratio -1. We extended smart transformation optics to 3 dimension and demonstrated 3D isotropic metamaterials waveguide. This 3D waveguide is arbitrary benda...
متن کاملPerturbative Approach to Calculating the Correlation Function of bi-isotropic Metamaterials
A bi-isotropic magneto-electric metamaterials is modeled by two independent reservoirs. The reservoirs contain a continuum of three dimensional harmonic oscillators, which describe polarizability and magnetizability of the medium. The paper aimed to investigate the effect of electromagnetic field on bi-isotropic. Starting with a total Lagrangian and using Euler-Lagrange equation, researcher cou...
متن کاملUltra low-loss, isotropic optical negative-index metamaterial based on hybrid metal-semiconductor nanowires
Recently, many fascinating properties predicted for metamaterials (negative refraction, superlensing, electromagnetic cloaking,…) were experimentally demonstrated. Unfortunately, the best achievements have no direct translation to the optical domain, without being burdened by technological and conceptual difficulties. Of particular importance within the realm of optical negative-index metamater...
متن کاملMaterial parameter retrieval procedure for general bi-isotropic metamaterials and its application to optical chiral negative-index metamaterial design.
A chiral optical negative-index metamaterial design of doubly periodic construction for the near-infrared spectrum is presented. The chirality is realized by incorporating sub-wavelength planar silver-aluminasilver resonators and arranging them in a left-handed helical (i.e., stair-step) configuration as a wave propagates through the metamaterial. An effective material parameter retrieval proce...
متن کاملThree-dimensional metamaterials with an ultrahigh effective refractive index over a broad bandwidth.
The authors introduce a general mechanism, based on electrostatic and magnetostatic considerations, for designing three-dimensional isotropic metamaterials that possess an enhanced refractive index over an extremely large frequency range. The mechanism allows nearly independent control of effective electric permittivity and magnetic permeability without the use of resonant elements.
