Microwave One-way Transparency by Large Synthetic Motion of Magnetochiral Polaritons in Metamolecules
arXiv:2503.22279 · doi:10.1103/qlg7-ygq8
Abstract
We observe microwave nonreciprocal one-way transparency via ultrastrongly-coupled magnetochiral polaritons (MChPs) in a metamolecule at room temperature. The experimental results using MCh metamolecules with simultaneous breaking of time-reversal and space-inversion symmetries are reproduced by numerical simulations. Based on effective polarizability tensor analyses, we verify massive synthetic motion of MChPs as an origin of the one-way transparency. This study paves a way to hybrid quantum systems and synthetic gauge fields using metamaterials.
