Metasurfaces have gained fame for their ability to control the transmitted and reflected phase front of waves. Here, we introduce a reflector-type acoustic metasurface designed in such a way to control the phase front of reflected sound waves. The proposed ...
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 ...
The development of metamaterials, i.e., artificially structured materials that interact with waves in unconventional ways, has revolutionized our ability to manipulate the propagation of electromagnetic waves and their interaction with matter. One of the m ...
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 ...
We prove that balanced loss-gain distributions provide an elegant path towards realizing loss-free unidirectional cloaks for objects much larger than the wavelength. By coating a scatterer with an ultrathin metasurface with balanced loss and gain, such as ...
We discuss our recent investigations on breaking time-reversal and spatio-temporal symmetries to provide novel functionalities in the field of metamaterials, with special emphasis on the field of acoustics and sound manipulation. ...
Sensing an incoming signal is typically associated with absorbing a portion of its energy, inherently perturbing the measurement and creating reflections and shadows. Here, in contrast, we demonstrate a non-invasive, shadow-free, invisible sensor for airbo ...
All methods presented to date to map both conductivity and permittivity rely on multiple acquisitions to compute quantitatively the magnitude of radiofrequency transmit fields, B1+. In this work, we propose a method to compute both conductivity and permitt ...
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 ...
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 ...
