Item Open Access Experimental observation of cavity formation in composite metamaterials(Optical Society of American (OSA), 2008) Caglayan H.; Bulu I.; Loncar, M.; Özbay, EkmelIn this paper, we investigated one of the promising applications of left-handed metamaterials: composite metamaterial based cavities. Four different cavity structures operating in the microwave regime were constructed, and we observed cavity modes on the transmission spectrum with different quality factors. The effective permittivity and permeability of the CMM structure and cavity structure were calculated by use of a retrieval procedure. Subsequently, in taking full advantage of the effective medium theory, we modeled CMM based cavities as one dimensional Fabry-Perot resonators with a subwavelength cavity at the center. We calculated the transmission from the Fabry-Perot resonator model using the one-dimensional transfer matrix method, which is in good agreement with the measured result. Finally, we investigated the Fabry-Perot resonance phase condition for a CMM based cavity, in which the condition was satisfied at the cavity frequency. Therefore, our results show that it is possible to treat metamaterial based cavities as one-dimensional Fabry-Perot resonators with a subwavelength cavity. © 2008 Optical Society of America.Item Open Access Non-ideal cloaking based on Fabry-Perot resonances in single-layer high-index dielectric shells(Optical Society of American (OSA), 2009) Serebryannikov, A.E.; Usik P.V.; Özbay, EkmelStrong reduction of the scattering cross section is obtained for subwavelength dielectric and conducting cylinders without any magnetism for both TE and TM polarizations. The suggested approach is based on the use of Fabry-Perot type radial resonances, which can appear in single-layer, high-ε, isotropic, and homogeneous shells with the properly chosen parameters. Frequencies of the minima of the scattering cross section, which are associated with the cloaking, typically depend on whether TE or TM polarization is considered. In some cases, large-positive-ε and largenegative-e objects can be cloaked. In other cases, non-ideal multifrequency cloaking can be realized. ©2009 Optical Society of America.Item Open Access Non-universal behavior of leaky surface waves in a one dimensional asymmetric plasmonic grating(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2015) Vempati S.; Iqbal, T.; Afsheen, S.We report on a non-universal behavior of leaky surface plasmon waves on asymmetric (Si/Au/analyte of different height) 1D grating through numerical modelling. The occurrence of the leaky surface wave was maximized (suppressing the Fabry-Perot cavity mode), which can be identified in a reflection spectrum through characteristic minimum. Beyond a specific analyte height (h), new sets of surface waves emerge, each bearing a unique reflection minimum. Furthermore, all of these minima depicted a red-shift before saturating at higher h values. This saturation is found to be non-universal despite the close association with their origin (being leaky surface waves). This behavior is attributed to the fundamental nature and the origin of the each set. Additionally, all of the surface wave modes co-exit at relatively higher h values. © 2015 AIP Publishing LLC.Item Open Access Thermally switchable, bifunctional, scalable, mid-infrared metasurfaces with VO2 grids capable of versatile polarization manipulation and asymmetric transmission(Optica Publishing Group (formerly OSA), 2022-12-01) Serebryannikov, Andriy E.; Lakhtakia, Akhlesh; Özbay, EkmelWe conceptualized three-array scalable bifunctional metasurfaces comprising only three thin strip grids and numerically determined their characteristics in the mid-infrared spectral regime for switchable operation scenarios involving polarization manipulation and related diodelike asymmetric transmission (AT) as one of two functionalities. A few or all of the grids were taken to be made of VO2, a bifunctionality-enabling phase-change material; there are no layers and/or meta-atoms comprising simultaneously both metal and VO2. For each proposed metasurface, two effective structures and, therefore, two different functionalities exist, corresponding to the metallic and insulating phases of VO2. The achieved scenarios of functionality switching significantly depend on the way in which VO2 is incorporated into the metasurface. Switchable bands of polarization manipulation are up to 40 THz wide. The AT band can be modulated when Fabry-Perot (anti-) resonances come into play. Besides, transmission regimes with the cross-polarized component insensitive to VO2 phase change are possible, as well as the ones with all co- and cross-polarized components having the same magnitude for both linear polarizations of the incident wave. © 2022 Optica Publishing Group under the terms of the Optica Open Access Publishing Agreement.
