It is generally believed that Veselagos criterion for negative refraction cannot be fulfilled in natural materials. However, considering imaginary parts of the permittivity ({epsilon}) and permeability ({mu}) and for metals at not too high frequencies the general condition for negative refraction becomes extremely simple: Re({mu}) < 0 --> Re(n) < 0. Here we demonstrate experimentally that in such natural metals as pure Co and FeCo alloy the negative values of the refractive index are achieved close to the frequency of the ferromagnetic resonance. Large values of the negative refraction can be obtained at room temperature and they can easily be tuned in moderate magnetic fields.

Reflection and refraction occur at interface between two different media. These two fundamental phenomena form the basis of fabricating various wave components. Specifically, refraction, dubbed positive refraction nowadays, appears in the opposite si
de of the interface normal with respect to the incidence. Negative refraction, emerging in the same side by contrast, has been observed in artificial materials1-5 following a prediction by Veslago6, which has stimulated many fascinating applications such as super-resolution imaging7. Here we report the first discovery of negative refraction of the topological surface arc states of Weyl crystals, realized for airborne sound in a novel woodpile phononic crystal. The interfaces are one-dimensional edges that separate different crystal facets. By tailoring the surface terminations of such a Weyl phononic crystal, open equifrequency contours of surface acoustic waves can be delicately designed to produce the negative refraction, to contrast the positive counterpart realized in the same sample. Strikingly different from the conventional interfacial phenomena, the unwanted reflection can be made forbidden by exploiting the open nature of the surface equifrequency contours, which is a topologically protected surface hallmark of Weyl crystals8-12.
We study the magnetic coupling between different ferromagnetic metals (FMs) across a graphene (G) layer, and the role of graphene as a thin covalent spacer. Starting with G grown on a FM substrate (Ni or Co), we deposit on top at room temperature dif
ferent FM metals (Fe, Ni, Co). By measuring the dichroic effect of 3p photoemission lines we detect the magnetization of the substrate and the sign of the exchange coupling in FM overlayer at room temperature. We show that the G layer magnetically decouples the FM metals.
We show that a gas of relativistic electrons is a left-handed material at low frequencies by computing the effective electric permittivity and effective magnetic permeability that appear in Maxwells equations in terms of the responses appearing in th
e constitutive relations, and showing that the former are both negative below the {it same} frequency, which coincides with the zero-momentum frequency of longitudinal plasmons. We also show, by explicit computation, that the photonic mode of the electromagnetic radiation does not dissipate energy, confirming that it propagates in the gas with the speed of light in vacuum, and that the medium is transparent to it. We then combine those results to show that the gas has a negative effective index of refraction $n_{rm eff}=-1$. We illustrate the consequences of this fact for Snells law, and for the reflection and transmission coefficients of the gas.
We present an ab initio theory of transport quantities of metallic ferromagnets developed in the framework of the fully relativistic tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital method. The approach is based on the Kubo-Streda formula for the conductivity
tensor, on the coherent potential approximation for random alloys, and on the concept of interatomic electron transport. The developed formalism is applied to pure 3d transition metals (Fe, Co, Ni) and to random Ni-based ferromagnetic alloys (Ni-Fe, Ni-Co, Ni-Mn). High values of the anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR), found for Ni-rich alloys, are explained by a negligible disorder in the majority spin channel while a change of the sign of the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) on alloying is interpreted as a band-filling effect without a direct relation to the high AMR. The influence of disorder on the AHE in concentrated alloys is investigated as well.
Spatial and time scales of spin density fluctuations (SDF) were analyzed in 3d ferromagnets using ab initio linear response calculations of complete wavevector and energy dependence of the dynamic spin susceptibility tensor. We demonstrate that SDF a
re spread continuously over the entire Brillouin zone and while majority of them reside within the 3d bandwidth, a significant amount comes from much higher energies. A validity of the adiabatic approximation in spin dynamics is discussed. The SDF spectrum is shown to have two main constituents: a minor low-energy spin wave contribution and a much larger high-energy component from more localized excitations. Using the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT), the on-site spin correlator (SC) and the related effective fluctuating moment were properly evaluated and their universal dependence on the 3d band population is further discussed.
