Negative refraction without negative index in metallic photonic crystals.
It is shown that certain metallic photonic crystals can enable negative refraction and subwavelength imaging without relying on a negative effective index. These metallic structures are very simple in design and appear straightforward for fabrication. Their unusual electromagnetic response should provide an interesting comparison with the metallic left-handed materials.
متن کامل5 Negative Refraction in Photonic Crystals
The phenomenon of negative refraction (NR) by 2D photonic crystals (PCs) is demonstrated in microwave experiments. NR by PCs is observed in 2D parallel-plate waveguide and in 3D free space measurements. Results are in excellent agreement with band structure calculation and numerical simulation. The optical properties of isotropic materials that are transparent to electromagnetic (EM) waves can ...
متن کاملNegative Refraction and Imaging in Photonic Crystals
Negative refraction and left-handed electromagnetism in a photonic crystal are demonstrated in waveguide and free space experiments at microwave frequencies. Precision control to achieve tailor-made refractive indices has been achieved. The negative refraction in these photonic crystals is shown to lead to imaging by a flat lens. We have also developed a generalized theory of flat lens imaging....
متن کاملNegative refraction and left-handed electromagnetism in microwave photonic crystals.
We demonstrate the negative refraction of microwaves in a metallic photonic crystal prism. The spectral response of the photonic crystal prism, which manifests both positive and negative refraction, is in complete agreement with band-structure calculations and numerical simulations. The validity of Snell's law with a negative refractive index is confirmed experimentally and theoretically. The n...
متن کاملAll-angle negative refraction without negative effective index
Negative refraction of electromagnetic waves in ‘‘lefthanded materials’’ has become of interest recently because it is the foundation for a variety of novel phenomena. In particular, it has been suggested that negative refraction leads to a superlensing effect that can potentially overcome the diffraction limit inherent in conventional lenses. These phenomena have been described in the context ...
