Metamaterials and Negative Refractive Index
D. R. Smith, J. B. Pendry, M. C. K. Wiltshire
Recently, artificially constructed metamaterials have become of considerable interest, as these materials can exhibit electromagnetic characteristics unlike any conventional materi…

Controlling Electromagnetic Fields
J. B. Pendry, D. Schurig, D. R. Smith
Using the freedom of design which metamaterials provide, we show how electromagnetic fields can be redirected at will and propose a design strategy. The conserved fields: electric…

Mimicking Surface Plasmons with Structured Surfaces
JB Pendry, L Martin-Moreno, FJ Garcia-Vidal
Metals such as silver support surface plasmons: electromagnetic surface excitations localised near the surface which originate from the free electrons of the metal. Surface modes a…
