In undergraduate courses on classical electromagnetism, it is taught that a perfect conductor
expels the electromagnetic (EM) field, and hence its surface is not able to support the …

With recent advances in nanophotonics and nanofabrication, considerable progress has
been achieved in realizations of thin composite layers designed for full absorption of …

In a backscatter communication system, the backscatter device (BD) transmits its messages
to the backscatter receiver (BR) by reflecting the incident signal from an external radio …

Multispectral complementary detection technologies have made single‐band camouflage
materials ineffective, creating strong demand for multispectral compatible camouflage …

Metamaterials are typically engineered by arranging a set of small scatterers or apertures in
a regular array throughout a region of space, thus obtaining some desirable bulk …

We review the current trends in the design of Huygens' metasurfaces (HMSs), which are
planar arrays of balanced electric and magnetic polarizable particles (meta-atoms) of …

Metasurfaces as optically thin composite layers can be modeled as electric and magnetic
surface current sheets flowing in the layer volume in the metasurface plane. In the most …

We analyze the design of ultrathin quarter-wave plates based on plasmonic metasurfaces.
After exploring the general theoretical possibilities offered by thin surfaces to manipulate the …

Electromagnetic metasurfaces can be characterized as intelligent if they are able to perform
multiple tunable functions, with the desired response being controlled by a computer …

We have developed a method for controlling electromagnetic surface wave propagation and
radiation from complex metallic shapes. The object is covered with an artificial impedance …
