Three Dimensional Optical Metamaterial Exhibiting Negative Refractive Index
Figure S1. The refractive index of the fishnet metamaterials for different numbers of layers and material loss. (a) The refractive index for different number of functional layers along the propagation direction. One important feature of metamaterials is the consistent refractive index profiles for different thicknesses. The effective refractive index was found by calculating the complex transmi...
متن کاملMechanochemically Responsive Viscoelastic Elastomers
Mechanochemically responsive (MCR) polymers have been designed to possess unconventional properties such as changing colors, self-healing, and releasing catalysts under deformation. These properties of MCR polymers stem from a class of molecules, referred to as mechanophores, whose chemical reactions can be controlled by mechanical forces. Although extensive studies have been devoted to the syn...
متن کاملCephalopod-inspired design of electro-mechano-chemically responsive elastomers for on-demand fluorescent patterning.
Cephalopods can display dazzling patterns of colours by selectively contracting muscles to reversibly activate chromatophores--pigment-containing cells under their skins. Inspired by this novel colouring strategy found in nature, we design an electro-mechano-chemically responsive elastomer system that can exhibit a wide variety of fluorescent patterns under the control of electric fields. We co...
متن کاملMechanics of mechanochemically responsive elastomers
Mechanochemically responsive (MCR) polymers have been synthesized by incorporating mechanophores – molecules whose chemical reactions are triggered by mechanical force – into conventional polymer networks. Deformation of the MCR polymers applies force on the mechanophores and triggers their reactions, which manifest as phenomena such as changing colors, varying fluorescence and releasing molecu...
متن کاملLight confinement via periodic modulation of the refractive index
We investigate, both theoretically and numerically, light confinement in dielectric structures with a transverse refractive index distribution periodically modulated in the longitudinal coordinate. We demonstrate that light can be guided even in the balanced limit when the average refractive index contrast vanishes in the direction of propagation, a dynamic trapping phenomenon analogous to the ...
