Noncontact frictional force between surfaces by peristaltic permittivity modulation

Daigo Oue, Kun Ding, J. B. Pendry

In this study, we reveal noncontact frictional forces between surfaces in the presence of peristaltic permittivity modulation. Our setup comprises a conducting medium, an air gap,…

Photon conservation in trans-luminal metamaterials

J. B. Pendry, E. Galiffi, P. A. Huidobro

Structures which appear to move at or near the velocity of light contain singular points. Energy generated by the motion accumulates at these points into ever-narrowing peaks. In t…

Photonics of Time-Varying Media

Emanuele Galiffi, Romain Tirole, Shixiong Yin +7

Time-varying media have recently emerged as a new paradigm for wave manipulation, thanks to thesynergy between the discovery of novel, highly nonlinear materials, such as epsilon-n…

Roadmap on multimode light shaping

Marco Piccardo, Vincent Ginis, Andrew Forbes +35

Our ability to generate new distributions of light has been remarkably enhanced in recent years. At the most fundamental level, these light patterns are obtained by ingeniously com…

Casimir induced instabilities at metallic surfaces and interfaces

Kun Ding, Daigo Oue, C. T. Chan +1

Surface plasmons subject to a surface distortion split asymmetrically in energy resulting in a net lowering of zero-point energy. This is because surface plasmon eigenvalues are th…

Metamaterials with index ellipsoids at arbitrary k-points

Wen-Jie Chen, John B. Pendry, C. T. Chan

We propose and investigate a new type of metamaterial structure composing of several interpenetrating wire meshes. Calculated band structures show that they exhibit index ellipsoid…
