In this article, spectroscopic ellipsometry studies of plasmon resonances at metal–dielectric
interfaces of thin films are reviewed. We show how ellipsometry provides valuable non …

A metamaterial is a composite material that has attracted the attention of researchers since
the late 1990s-early 2000s. This material contains an artificial periodic structure, which …

Recently it has been predicted that materials with exceptionally strong optical activity may
also possess a negative refractive index, allowing the realization of superlenses for super …

The authors demonstrate a chiral photonic metamaterial with chirality provided by
electromagnetic coupling between mutually twisted unconnected layers. In the visible and …

In metamaterials, electric (magnetic) dipoles can be excited by the electric (magnetic)
component of the incident light field. Moreover, in the description of bianisotropic …

Homogeneous composites, or metamaterials, made of dielectric or metallic particles are
known to show magnetic properties that contradict arguments by Landau and Lifshitz …

Disordered stealthy hyperuniform dielectric composites exhibit novel electromagnetic wave
transport properties in two and three dimensions. Here, we carry out the first study of the …

The article proposes a formulation of nonlocal electrodynamics by using the integral and
integro-differential operators that form a general fractional calculus in the Luchko form …

Raspberry-like magnetic nanoclusters are synthesized and subsequently self-assembled to
form a bulk metamaterial exhibiting strong isotropic optical magnetism in visible light. The …

Optical metamaterials can exhibit negative index of refraction when both the effective
permittivity and permeability are negative. The negative permeability is usually considered …
