Artificially engineered metamaterials are now demonstrating unprecedented
electromagnetic properties that cannot be obtained with naturally occurring materials. In …

A form of optical circuitry is overviewed in which a tapestry of subwavelength nanometer-
scale metamaterial structures and nanoparticles may provide a mechanism for tailoring …

Optical metasurfaces are regular quasi-planar nanopatterns that can apply diverse spatial
and spectral transformations to light waves. However, metasurfaces are no longer …

We experimentally demonstrate a perfect plasmonic absorber at λ= 1.6 μm. Its polarization-
independent absorbance is 99% at normal incidence and remains very high over a wide …

In atomic physics, the coherent coupling of a broad and a narrow resonance leads to
quantum interference and provides the general recipe for electromagnetically induced …

We experimentally demonstrate a planar metamaterial analogue of electromagnetically
induced transparency at optical frequencies. The structure consists of an optically bright …

An optical metamaterial is a composite in which subwavelength features, rather than the
constituent materials, control the macroscopic electromagnetic properties of the material …

The subdiscipline of chemistry that studies molecular structures in three dimensions is called
stereochemistry. One important aspect of stereochemistry is stereoisomers: materials with …

We demonstrate experimentally a periodic array of differently-sized and circularly-shaped
gap plasmon resonators (GPRs) with the average absorption~ 94% for unpolarized light in …

The arbitrary control of the polarization states of light has attracted the interest of the
scientific community because of the wide range of modern optical applications that such …
