Wide-angle infrared absorber based on negative index plasmonic metamaterial
Yoav Avitzour, Yaroslav A. Urzhumov, Gennady Shvets
A metamaterials-based approach to making a wide-angle absorber of infrared radiation is described. The technique is based on an anisotropic Perfectly Impedance Matched Negative Ind…
Polarization conversion in a silica microsphere
Pablo Bianucci, Chris Fietz, John W. Robertson +2
We experimentally demonstrate controlled polarization-selective phenomena in a whispering gallery mode resonator. We observed efficient () polarization conversion of…
Guiding, focusing, and sensing on the sub-wavelength scale using metallic wire arrays
G. Shvets, S. Trendafilov, J. B. Pendry +1
We show that two-dimensional arrays of thin metallic wires can guide transverse electromagnetic (TEM) waves and focus them to the spatial dimensions much smaller that the vacuum wa…
Giant transmission and dissipation in perforated films mediated by surface phonon polaritons
D. Korobkin, Y. A. Urzhumov, B. Neuner +3
We experimentally and theoretically study electromagnetic properties of optically thin silicon carbide (SiC) membranes perforated by an array of sub-wavelength holes. Giant absorpt…
Optical polarizer/isolator based on a rectangular waveguide with helical grooves
Gennady Shvets
A chirality-based approach to making a one-way waveguide that can be used as an optical isolator or a polarizer is described. The waveguide is rectangular, and chirality is introdu…
