Underpinned by the advent of metamaterials, transformation optics offers great versatility for
controlling electromagnetic waves to create materials with specially designed properties …

Artificially engineered metamaterials are now demonstrating unprecedented
electromagnetic properties that cannot be obtained with naturally occurring materials. In …

Optical Metamaterials begins with a brief introduction stuffed with ample references; the
remaining chapters extensively cover selected topics: optical properties of metal–dielectric …

In this paper, we investigate how the form of the conventional elastodynamic equations
changes under curvilinear transformations. The equations get mapped to a more general …

Hyperbolic materials enable numerous surprising applications that include far-field
subwavelength imaging, nanolithography, and emission engineering. The wavevector of a …

In this paper, we suggest a new perspective, where Newton's second law of motion is
replaced by a more general law which is a better approximation for describing the motion of …

Mechanical metamaterials, also known as architected materials, are rationally designed
composites, aiming at elastic behaviors and effective mechanical properties beyond ('meta') …

We present an approach for subwavelength focusing of microwaves using both a time-
reversal mirror placed in the far field and a random distribution of scatterers placed in the …

Regions of anomalous localized resonance, such as occurring near superlenses, are shown
to lead to cloaking effects. This occurs when the resonant field generated by a polarizable …

We propose a type of locally resonant structure involving arrays of structured coated
inclusions. The coating consists of a structural interface with beams inclined at a certain …
