Developments in Metamaterials and Transformation Optics
Online Presentations | 29 Mar 2010 | Contributor(s):: David R. Smith
Metamaterials—artificially structured microcircuits that can mimic the electromagnetic response of atoms and molecules—have vastly expanded the opportunities available for the design of electromagnetic structures. Starting in 2000 with the first report of a “left-handed” metamaterial, for which...

McCoy Lecture: Transforming Light with Metamaterials: A New Paradigm for the Science of Light
Online Presentations | 19 Dec 2009 | Contributor(s):: Vladimir M. Shalaev
One of the most unique properties of light is that it can package information into a signal of zero mass and propagate it at the ultimate speed. It is, however, a daunting challenge to bring photonic devices to the nanometer scale because of the fundamental diffraction limit. Metamaterials can...

Metamaterials with low loss and gain
Online Presentations | 27 Jan 2010 | Contributor(s):: Mikhail A. Noginov
Optical loss caused by absorption in metal and a need for active control are among the major challenges of plasmonic metamaterials. Both can be addressed by utilizing optical gain. Recent efforts aimed at the reduction of loss and the stimulated emission in nanoplasmonic systems with gain will be...
