Perfect Transmission through Disordered Media
Chris King, Simon Horsley, Tom Philbin
The transmission of a wave through a randomly chosen `pile of plates' typically decreases exponentially with the number of plates, a phenomenon closely related to Anderson localisa…
A class of invisible inhomogeneous media and the control of electromagnetic waves
Benjamin Vial, Yangjie Liu, Simon A. R. Horsley +2
We propose a general method to arbitrarily manipulate an electromagnetic wave propagating in a two-dimensional medium, without introducing any scattering. This leads to a whole cla…
Polariton excitation rates from time dependent dielectrics
S. Bugler-Lamb, S. A. R. Horsley
In recent years, a rigorous quantum mechanical model for the interaction between light and macroscopic dispersive, lossy dielectrics has emerged -macroscopic QED- allowing the appl…
The KdV hierarchy in optics
S. A. R. Horsley
There is a well explored relationship between quantum mechanical scattering from a potential and the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation of fluid dynamics: if the potential is 'evolve…
Negative frequencies in wave propagation: a microscopic model
S. A. R. Horsley, S. Bugler-Lamb
A change in the sign of the frequency of a wave between two inertial reference frames corresponds to a reversal of the phase velocity. Yet from the point of view of the relation $E…
