Phase conjugation and negative refraction using nonlinear active metamaterials.
We present an experimental demonstration of phase conjugation using nonlinear metamaterial elements. Active split-ring resonators loaded with varactor diodes are demonstrated theoretically to act as phase-conjugating or time-reversing discrete elements when parametrically pumped and illuminated with appropriate frequencies. The metamaterial elements were fabricated and shown experimentally to p...
متن کاملLight propagation with phase discontinuities: generalized laws of reflection and refraction.
Conventional optical components rely on gradual phase shifts accumulated during light propagation to shape light beams. New degrees of freedom are attained by introducing abrupt phase changes over the scale of the wavelength. A two-dimensional array of optical resonators with spatially varying phase response and subwavelength separation can imprint such phase discontinuities on propagating ligh...
متن کاملReflection and refraction of light from metasurfaces with phase discontinuities
A three-dimensional extension of the recently demonstrated generalization of the laws of refraction and reflection was investigated for both flat and curved metasurfaces. We found that out-of-plane refraction occurs for a metasurface that imparts a wavevector out of the plane of incidence onto the incident light beam. Metasurfaces provide arbitrary control over the direction of refraction, and ...
متن کاملGeneralized refraction using lenslet arrays
We have recently started to investigate 2D arrays of confocal lens pairs. Miniaturization of the lens pairs can make the array behave ray-optically like a homogeneous medium. Here we generalize the geometry of the lens pairs. These generalisations include a sideways shift of the lens centres and a change in the orientation of both lenses in each pair. We investigate the basic ray optics of the ...
متن کاملReflection, Refraction and Diffraction of Magneto-Inductive (MI) Waves in 2-D Metamaterials
Waves capable of propagating on arrays of capacitively loaded loops (stacked axially or arranged in a planar configuration) were predicted in [1], treated in more detail for the twoand three-dimensional cases in [2] and proven experimentally in [3]. The aim of the present communication is to show that MI waves belong to the family of linear waves not only when propagation in a homogeneous mediu...
