An analytical circuit model able to predict the input impedance of reconfigurable graphene plasmonic dipoles is presented. A suitable definition of plasmonic characteristic impedance, employing natural currents, is used to for consistent modeling of the an ...

The goal of this paper is to perform end-point impedance measurements across dominant and nondominant hands while doing airbrush painting and to use the results for developing a robotic assistance scheme. We study airbrush painting because it resembles in ...

Acoustic devices that break reciprocity, for instance acoustic isolators or circulators, may find exciting applications in a variety of fields, including imaging, acoustic communication systems, and noise control. Non-reciprocal acoustic propagation has 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 ...
We introduce the acoustic equivalent of “supercoupling” by studying the anomalous sound transmission and uniform energy squeezing through ultranarrow acoustic channels filled with zero-density metamaterials. As a realistic example, we propose their realiza ...
Dynamic reconfiguration of antenna devices is becoming a prime need in emerging telecommunication and remote sensing systems operating in the portion of the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum spanning from millimeter-wave (MMW) to terahertz. Different technique ...
We explore the largely uncharted scattering properties of acoustic systems that are engineered to be invariant under a special kind of space-time symmetry, consisting in taking their mirror image and running time backwards. Known as Parity-Time symmetry, t ...

Most research focuses on varying the resonator and dielectric spacer to configure the absorption and resonant frequency of terahertz (THz) metamaterial absorbers (MAs), where a metal ground plane is used as a perfect reflector of incident THz waves. In thi ...
We discuss the use of metasurfaces and plasmonic metamaterials to minimize the scattering from receiving antennas and sensors, with the goal of maximizing their absorption efficiency. We first analytically study and highlight the potential of these approac ...
