Throughout the 19th and 20th century, chirality has mostly been associated with chemistry.
However, while chirality can be very useful for understanding molecules, molecules are not …

Metasurfaces as optically thin composite layers can be modeled as electric and magnetic
surface current sheets flowing in the layer volume in the metasurface plane. In the most …

Recent progress in understanding the topological properties of condensed matter has led to
the discovery of time-reversal-invariant topological insulators. A remarkable and useful …

&Quot; Analytical Modeling in Applied Electromagnetics provides a thorough introduction to
the use of analytical models in the design of antennas and microwave devices. By …

This paper develops a quasi-analytical and self-consistent model to compute the
polarizabilities of split ring resonators (SRRs). An experimental setup is also proposed for …

Metamaterials is a young subject born in the 21st century. It is concerned with artificial
materials which can have electrical and magnetic properties difficult or impossible to find in …

Energy of propagating electromagnetic waves can be fully absorbed in a thin lossy layer, but
only in a narrow frequency band, as follows from the causality principle. On the other hand, it …

Ever since the first experimental demonstration was reported in 2000, the interest in
metamaterials and left-handed media that exhibit a negative refractive index has increased …

A model for a chiral material in which both the permittivity and permeability are equal to zero
is discussed. Such a material is referred by us as a" chiral nihility". It is shown that this exotic …

Plasmonic nanostructures can generate electromagnetic fields with high optical chirality that
interact strongly with chiral molecules. We demonstrate how structures with chiral …
