Lithographically fabricated magnifying Maxwell fisheye lenses
V. N. Smolyaninova, W. Zimmerman, C. Jensen +3
Recently suggested transformation optics-based magnifying Maxwell fisheye lenses, which are made of two half-lenses of different radii, has been fabricated and characterized. The l…
Hyperbolic Metamaterials
Igor I. Smolyaninov
Hyperbolic metamaterials were originally introduced to overcome the diffraction limit of optical imaging. Soon thereafter it was realized that hyperbolic metamaterials demonstrate…
The flexibility of optical metrics
Eduardo Bittencourt, Jonas P. Pereira, Igor Smolyaninov +1
We firstly revisit the importance, naturalness and limitations of the so-called optical metrics for describing the propagation of light rays in the limit of geometric optics. We th…
Thermodynamics of effective Minkowski spacetime in self-assembled hyperbolic metamaterials
Igor I. Smolyaninov
Recent developments in gravitation theory indicate that the classic general relativity is an effective macroscopic theory which will be eventually replaced with a more fundamental…
Using core-shell metamaterial engineering to triple the critical temperature of a superconductor
Vera N. Smolyaninova, Kathryn Zander, Thomas Gresock +4
Recent experiments have shown the viability of the metamaterial approach to dielectric response engineering for moderately enhancing the transition temperature, Tc, of a supercondu…
Experimental demonstration of Luneburg waveguides
Vera N. Smolyaninova, David Lahneman, Todd Adams +4
Transformation optics gives rise to numerous unusual optical devices, such as novel metamaterial lenses and invisibility cloaks. Very recently Mattheakis et al. have suggested theo…
