The physics of quantum materials is dictated by many-body interactions and mathematical
concepts such as symmetry and topology that have transformed our understanding of matter …

Diffusion driven by temperature or concentration gradients is a fundamental mechanism of
energy and mass transport that inherently differs from wave propagation in both physical …

Classical thermodynamics often helps to passively describe macroscopic heat phenomena
of natural systems, which means people almost cannot change the heat phenomena, but …

The original Kerker effect was introduced for a hypothetical magnetic sphere, and initially it
did not attract much attention due to a lack of magnetic materials required. Rejuvenated by …

Simulating quantum mechanics is known to be a difficult computational problem, especially
when dealing with large systems. However, this difficulty may be overcome by using some …

Metamaterial-based optical cloaks have thus far used volumetric distribution of the material
properties to gradually bend light and thereby obscure the cloaked region. Hence, they are …

Metamaterials are artificial structures with the ability to efficiently control light‐field, attracting
intensive attention in the past few decades. People have studied the working principles …

Metamaterials, artificial composite structures with exotic material properties, have emerged
as a new frontier of science involving physics, material science, engineering and chemistry …

Metamaterials are rationally designed man-made structures composed of functional building
blocks that are densely packed into an effective (crystalline) material. While metamaterials …

An object can be perceived and identified due to its unique scattering signature in various
physical fields, eg, optics, electromagnetics, acoustics, thermotics, etc. Analogous to wave …
