An acoustic metasurface carpet cloak based on membrane-capped cavities is proposed and investigated numerically. This design has been chosen for allowing ultrathin geometries, although adapted to airborne sound frequencies in the range of 1 kHz (λ≈30 cm), ...
This paper is devoted to the study of cloaking via anomalous localized resonance (CALR) in the two- and three-dimensional quasistatic regimes. CALR associated with negative index materials was discovered by Milton and Nicorovici [21] for constant plasmonic ...
This paper presents a method of manufacturing 3D metamaterial structures using laser radiation. Our proposed material, aluminum nitride (AlN), by interaction of a high-energy laser beam undergoes a direct metallization process, a result of which a conducti ...
We show that PT-symmetry concepts, combined with an effective nonlocal response, allow realizing all-angle negative refraction and aberration-free optical imaging. The designed PT-symmetric lens is an example of “absolute optical instrument”, with similar ...
The surge of modern techniques to fabricate structured materials paired with our ever deeper understanding of complex forms of matter present us with the opportunity to make and study dramatically new forms of designed materials and structures.This movemen ...
Parity-Time (PT) symmetry refers to the invariance of a physical system upon reflection of space and time. An intriguing property of PT-symmetric quantum systems is the fact that they can have entirely real eigenvalue spectra, despite being non-Hermitian. ...
Metamaterials are artificially structured materials possessing exotic electromagnetic or acoustic properties that are not readily available in nature, for instance synthesizing negative, zero, or very large index of refraction. Their exotic features are ty ...
We introduce a new mechanism to realize negative refraction and planar focusing using a pair of parity-time symmetric metasurfaces. In contrast to existing solutions that achieve these effects with negative-index metamaterials or phase conjugating surfaces ...
This paper is devoted to the study of cloaking via anomalous localized resonance (CALR) in two and three dimensions in the quasistatic regime. Two key figures of CALR are (i) the localized resonance and (ii) the connection between the localized resonance a ...
Gap-plasmons (GP) in metal-insulator-metal (MIM) structures have shown exceptional performance in guiding and concentrating light within deep subwavelength layers. Reported designs to date exploit tapered thicknesses of the insulating layer in order to con ...
