Twisted split-ring-resonator photonic metamaterial with huge optical activity

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Coupled split-ring-resonator metamaterials have previously been shown to exhibit large coupling effects, which are a prerequisite for obtaining large effective optical activity. By a suitable lateral arrangement of these building blocks, we completely eliminate linear birefringence and obtain pure optical activity and connected circular optical dichroism. Experiments around a 100THz frequency and corresponding modeling are in good agreement. Rotation angles of about 30° for 205nm sample thickness are derived.
