Planar designs for electromagnetically induced transparency in metamaterials
Philippe Tassin, Lei Zhang, Thomas Koschny +2
We present a planar design of a metamaterial exhibiting electromagnetically induced transparency that is amenable to experimental verification in the microwave frequency band. The…
Optical forces in nanowire pairs and metamaterials
Rongkuo Zhao, Philippe Tassin, Thomas Koschny +1
We study the optical force arising when isolated gold nanowire pairs and metamaterials with a gold nanowire pair in the unit cell are illuminated with laser radiation. Firstly, we…
Miniaturization of photonic waveguides by the use of left-handed materials
Philippe Tassin, Xavier Sahyoun, Irina Veretennicoff
We propose the use of a left-handed material in an optical waveguide structure to reduce its thickness well below the wavelength of light. We demonstrate that a layer of left-hande…
Large group delay in a microwave metamaterial analogue of electromagnetically induced transparency
Lei Zhang, Philippe Tassin, Thomas Koschny +3
We report on our experimental work concerning a planar metamaterial exhibiting classical electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). Using a structure with two mirrored split-r…
Negative diffraction pattern dynamics in nonlinear cavities with left-handed materials
Pascal Kockaert, Philippe Tassin, Guy Van der Sande +2
We study a ring cavity filled with a slab of a right-handed material and a slab of a left-handed material. Both layers are assumed to be nonlinear Kerr media. First, we derive a mo…
Frequency converter implementing an optical analogue of the cosmological redshift
V. Ginis, P. Tassin, B. Craps +1
According to general relativity, the frequency of electromagnetic radiation is altered by the expansion of the universe. This effect--commonly referred to as the cosmological redsh…
