Optical Anapole Metamaterial [PDF]
The toroidal dipole is a localized electromagnetic excitation independent from the familiar magnetic and electric dipoles. It corresponds to currents flowing along minor loops of a torus. Interference of radiating induced toroidal and electric dipoles leads to anapole, a nonradiating charge-current configuration.

Multiband terahertz metamaterial perfect absorber for microorganisms detection
We report a multi-resonant terahertz (THz) metamaterial perfect absorber (MPA)-based biosensor in the working frequency range of $$0 - 3.8 THz$$ 0 - 3.8 T H z for sensing of microorganisms (such as fungi, yeast) and wheat pesticides. Nearly $$100\%$$ 100

Reconfigurable Photonic Metamaterials [PDF]
We introduce mechanically reconfigurable photonic metamaterials (RPMs) as a flexible platform for realizing metamaterial devices with reversible and large-range tunable characteristics in the optical part of the spectrum. Here we illustrate this concept for a temperature-driven RPM exhibiting reversible relative transmission changes of up to 50%.

Spatio-temporal characterization of ultrashort vector pulses
Ultrafast vectorially polarized pulses have found many applications in information and energy transfer owing mainly to the presence of strong longitudinal components and their space-polarization non-separability.

Holographic free-electron light source
Controlling the generation of light in nano-scale systems is a challenging task and is of growing importance. Here, Li et al. propose a means of controlling the wavefront of light emanating from a single nano scale emitter by holographic principles using

Plasmonic anapole metamaterial for refractive index sensing
Electromagnetic anapole mode is a nonradiative state of light originating from the deconstructive interference of radiation of the oscillating electric and toroidal dipole moments.

Metarpillar: Soft robotic locomotion based on buckling-driven elastomeric metamaterials
Mechanical instabilities are emerging as novel actuation mechanisms for the design of biomimetic soft robots and smart structures. The present study shows that by coupling buckling-driven elastomeric auxetic modules actuated by a negative air-pressure, a

Perfect Metamaterial Absorber [PDF]
We present the design for an absorbing metamaterial element with near unity absorbance. Our structure consists of two metamaterial resonators that couple separately to electric and magnetic fields so as to absorb all incident radiation within a single unit cell layer. We fabricate, characterize, and analyze a metamaterial absorber with a slightly lower

Coding Metamaterials, Digital Metamaterials and Programming Metamaterials
As artificial structures, metamaterials are usually described by macroscopic effective medium parameters, which are named as "analog metamaterials". Here, we propose "digital metamaterials" in two steps. Firstly, we present "coding metamaterials" that are composed of only two kinds of unit cells with 0 and phase responses, which we name as "0" and ...
