Experimental observation of subwavelength localization using metamaterial-based cavities.
We report subwavelength localization of electromagnetic fields within cavities based on metamaterials. Cavity resonances are observed in the transmission spectrum of a split-ring resonator and composite metamaterials cavity structures. These cavity resonances are shown to exhibit high-quality factors. Since the unit cells of metamaterials are much smaller than the operation wavelength, subwavel...
متن کاملExperimental contextuality in classical light
The Klyachko, Can, Binicioglu, and Shumovsky (KCBS) inequality is an important contextuality inequality in three-level system, which has been demonstrated experimentally by using quantum states. Using the path and polarization degrees of freedom of classical optics fields, we have constructed the classical trit (cetrit), tested the KCBS inequality and its geometrical form (Wright's inequality) ...
متن کاملUltrahigh interference spatial compression of light inside the subwavelength aperture of a near-field optical probe.
Spatial effects of interference and interaction of light modes in the subwavelength part of the near-field optical microscopy probe have been theoretically studied. It was found that the mode interference can lead to higher spatial compression of light (wavelength is equal to 500 nm in free space) within the transverse size of 25 nm inside the probe output aperture of 100 nm in diameter. The re...
متن کاملObservation of enhanced transmission for s-polarized light through a subwavelength slit.
Enhanced optical transmission (EOT) through a single aperture is usually achieved by exciting surface plasmon polaritons with periodic grooves. Surface plasmon polaritons are only excited by p-polarized incident light, i.e. with the electric field perpendicular to the direction of the grooves. The present study experimentally investigates EOT for s-polarized light. A subwavelength slit surround...
متن کاملThe Light and Velocity Curves of Classical Cepheids: TheoryVersus Observation
Fourier decomposition is employed to compare observed light and velocity curves of classical Cepheids with light and velocity curves generated by two sets of hydrodynamic models-the Carson-opacity models of Vemury and Stothers (VS) and a set of models constructed with Los Alamos opacities and dynamical zoning (LOS). In spite of the fact that a number of the theoretical light and (particularly) ...
