Minimum energy and photon content in PT symmetric metamaterials
J. B. Pendry, S. A. R. Horsley
In the context of waves in space time modulated materials, we ask two questions how much energy does it cost to break time reversal symmetry and transition to a PT symmetric state.…
Generalized Time-Varying Drude Model for Dispersive and Lossy Modulations
Antonio Ganfornina-Andrades, J. Enrique Vázquez-Lozano, Iñigo Liberal +1
We develop a generalization of the time-varying Drude model, treating carrier density, effective mass, and collision rate as explicit functions of time. We derive expressions for p…
Scattering in Time-Varying Drude-Lorentz Models
Bryce Dixon, Calvin M. Hooper, Ian R. Hooper +1
Motivated by recent experiments, the theoretical study of wave propagation in time varying materials is of current interest. Although significant in nearly all such experiments, ma…
Coherent absorption reveals colors hidden in a grey Fabry-Pérot cavity
Giuseppe E. Lio, Giulio Carotta, Lorenzo Lavista +8
Thin dielectric films are known to show distinct colors, responsible for the iridescence of various natural and artificial objects such as insect wings and soap bubbles. In the pre…
Quasi Normal Modes in Dispersive Photonic Time-Crystals
Calvin M. Hooper, Ian R. Hooper, Simon A. R. Horsley
Quasinormal modes characterise the transient response of static optical cavities. Here, we introduce the notion of a Floquet quasinormal mode to describe transient responses in pho…
Electromagnetic Boundary Conditions for Space--time Interfaces
Jonathan Gratus, Simon A. R. Horsley, Martin W. McCall
We give a general family of electromagnetic boundary conditions applicable to arbitrary space--time interfaces between electromagnetic media, which include the known space--only an…
