Reflection, Refraction and the Prism
Huygens’ principle can be used to determine various experimentally verifiable and predictable behavior of the path of light through any optical system. However, as seen in the chapter on Light, the Huygens wavefront construction can be become complicated, especially in systems with a large number of optical components. A simpler approach to track the behavior of light is based on the propagatio...
متن کاملLiquid crystal hyperbolic metamaterial for wide-angle negative-positive refraction and reflection.
We show that nanosphere dispersed liquid crystal (NDLC) metamaterial can be characterized in near IR spectral region as an indefinite medium whose real parts of effective ordinary and extraordinary permittivities are opposite in signs. Based on this fact we designed an electro-optic effect: an external electric-field-driven switch between normal refraction, negative refraction, and reflection o...
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 کاملReduced reflection from roughened hyperbolic metamaterial.
We show that roughened surfaces of hyperbolic metamaterials scatter light preferentially inside the media, resulting in a very low reflectance. This phenomenon of fundamental importance, demonstrated experimentally in arrays of silver nanowires grown in alumina membranes, is consistent with a broad-band singularity in the density of photonic states. It paves the road to a variety of application...
متن کاملExtraordinary Optical Reflection from Annular Dielectric Nanorod Arrays
Responses of free standing subwavelength annular dielectric nanorod arrays are described. Extreme reflection peaks with high quality factor follow a multiple scattering approach, which can be explained by geometrical resonance. It is demonstrated that the value and the resonant frequency of the sharp geometric resonance modes can be tuned by geometric parameters such as the outer radius, inner ...
