Polarization–universal rejection filtering by ambichiral structures made of indefinite dielectric–magnetic materials
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract. An ambichiral structure comprising sheets of an anisotropic dielectric material rejects normally incident plane waves of one circular polarization (CP) state but not of the other CP state, in its fundamental Bragg regime. However, if the same structure is made of an dielectric–magnetic material with indefinite permittivity and permeability dyadics, it may function as a polarization–universal rejection filter because two of the four planewave components of the electromagnetic field phasors in each sheet are of the positive–phase–velocity type and two are of the negative–phase– velocity type.

Electrically Controlled Bragg Resonances of an Ambichiral Electro–optic Structure: Oblique Incidence
The Pockels effect can increase the effective birefringence of ambichiral, electro–optic rejection filters made of materials with a 4̄2m point group symmetry, when a dc electric field is applied parallel to the axis of nonhomogeneity. The reflectances and the transmittances of such an ambichiral structure for obliquely incident plane waves is solvable through a boundary–value problem that is for...
متن کاملInfluence of optical Kerr coefficient on photonic band structures of hexagonal-lattice function photonic crystals
In this paper, we have studied the photonic band structure of function photonic crystals in which the dielectric constant of the scattering centers (rods) is a function of space coordinates. The under-studied lattice is hexagonal and cross section of rods has a circular symmetry embedded in the air background. Photonic band structures for both electric and magnetic polarizations of the electrom...
متن کاملFractional equations of Curie--von Schweidler and Gauss laws
The dielectric susceptibility of most materials follows a fractional power-law frequency dependence that is called the ”universal” response. We prove that in the time domain this dependence gives differential equations with derivatives and integrals of noninteger order. We obtain equations that describe ”universal” Curie-von Schweidler and Gauss laws for such dielectric materials. These laws ar...
متن کاملUniversal electromagnetic waves in dielectric
The dielectric susceptibility of a wide class of dielectric materials follows, over extended frequency ranges, a fractional power-law frequency dependence that is called the ‘universal’ response. The electromagnetic fields in such dielectric media are described by fractional differential equations with time derivatives of non-integer order. An exact solution of the fractional equations for a ma...
متن کاملMagneto-Dielectric Effects Induced by Optically-Generated Intermolecular Charge-Transfer States in Organic Semiconducting Materials
Traditionally, magneto-dielectric effects have been developed by combining ferroelectric and magnetic materials. Here, we show a magneto-dielectric effect from optically-generated intermolecular charge-transfer states in an organic semiconducting donor:acceptor (PVK:TCNB) system. We observe in magnetic field effects of photoluminescence that a magnetic field can change singlet/triplet populatio...
