Nonreciprocal nonlinear wave scattering by loss-compensated active hyperbolic structures
The combinatorial frequency generation (CFG) in active periodic semiconductor-dielectric structures has been explored through illumination by a pair of pump waves with dissimilar frequencies and incidence angles. We study the influence of gain on linear refraction properties of the stack and on the efficiency of the mixing processes by the system with the resistive character of nonlinearity. We...
متن کاملLoss-compensated and active hyperbolic metamaterials.
We have studied the dispersion relations of multilayers of silver and a dye-doped dielectric using four methods: standard effective-medium theory (EMT), nonlocal-effect-corrected EMT, nonlinear equations based on the eigenmode method, and a spatial harmonic analysis method. We compare the validity of these methods and show that metallic losses can be greatly compensated by saturated gain. Two r...
متن کاملNonreciprocal wave scattering on nonlinear string-coupled oscillators.
We study scattering of a periodic wave in a string on two lumped oscillators attached to it. The equations can be represented as a driven (by the incident wave) dissipative (due to radiation losses) system of delay differential equations of neutral type. Nonlinearity of oscillators makes the scattering non-reciprocal: The same wave is transmitted differently in two directions. Periodic regimes ...
متن کاملLight scattering by nonlinear cylindrical multilayer structures
We study light scattering by cylindrical multilayer structures containing Kerr-type nonlinear materials. We develop a new semi-analytical method for solving such nonlinear problems by reducing the original 2D system by a 1D nonlinear Helmholtz equation. We apply our method for the case of wave scattering by the core-shell metal-dielectric nanowire and show that the nonlinearity allows us to con...
متن کاملNonreciprocal active metamaterials
We show experimentally that active electromagnetic metamaterials are suitable for the implementation of a large class of nonreciprocal media characterized by magnetoelectric constitutive parameters that cannot be achieved in passive materials. We design, fabricate, and characterize an isolator made of such an active metamaterial slab and show that it is essentially transparent to microwaves pro...
