Strong interests are recently emerging for development of solid-state devices operating in the so-called “terahertz gap” region for possible application in radio astronomy, industry and defense. To fill the THz gap by using conventional electron approach or transit time devices seems to be very difficult due to the limitation that comes from the carrier transit time where extremely small featur...

While a broadband metamaterial perfect absorber (MPA) has been implemented and proposed intensively in recent years, an ultra-broadband perfect absorber with polarization selectivity has not been realized in literature. In this work, we propose a configuration of polarization-selective (PS) MPA with ultra-wide absorption bandwidth. The aluminum wire grid is integrated on top of the ultrathin-me...

Analytic results for (Q)ED processes in external fields are limited to a few special cases, such as plane waves. However, the strong focusing of intense laser fields implies a need to go beyond the plane wave model. By exploiting Poincaré symmetry and superintegrability we show how to construct, and solve without approximation, new models of laser-matter interactions. We illustrate the method w...

Having shown elsewhere [1] that the Klein paradox for the Klein-Gordon (KG) equation of spin-zero particle manifests exactly the same kind of wave propagation and negative refraction phenomena, which also exist in the scattering of TM (transverse-magnetic) –polarized electromagnetic (EM) wave incident on a left handed medium (LHM), we show in this paper that it is possible to simulate the Klein...
