We experimentally observe the tuning of metamaterials through the relative rotation of the elements about their common axis. In contrast to previous results we observe a crossing of resonances, where the symmetric and anti-symmetric modes become degenerate. We associate this effect with an interplay between the magnetic and electric near-field interactions and verify this by calculations based on the interaction energy between resonators.

This work theoretically and analytically demonstrates the magnetic field-induced spectral radiative properties of photonic metamaterials incorporating both Indium Antimonide (InSb) and Tungsten (W) in the terahertz (THz) frequency regime. We have var ied multiple factors of the nanostructures, including composite materials, layer thicknesses and surface grating fill factors, which impact the light-matter interactions and in turn modify the thermal emission of the metamaterials. We have proposed and validated a method for determining the spectral properties of InSb under an applied direct current (DC) magnetic field, and have employed this method to analyze how these properties can be dynamically tuned by modulating the magnitude of the field. For the first time, we have designed an InSb-W metamaterial exhibiting unity narrowband emission which can serve as an emitter for wavelengths around 55 $mu$m (approximately 5.5 THz). Additionally, the narrowband emission of this metamaterial can be magnetically tuned in both bandwidth and peak wavelength with a normal emissivity close to unity.
A many-mode laser with nonlinear modal interaction could serve as a model system to study many-body physics. However, precise and continuous tuning of the interaction strength over a wide range is challenging. Here, we present a unique method for con trolling lasing mode structures by introducing random phase fluctuation to a nearly degenerate cavity. We show numerically and experimentally that as the characteristic scale of phase fluctuation decreases by two orders of magnitude, the transverse modes become fragmented and the reduction of their spatial overlap suppresses modal competition for gain, allowing more modes to lase. The tunability, flexibility and robustness of our system provides a powerful platform for investigating many-body phenomena.
This paper presents the authors vision of the emerging field of spacetime metamaterials in a cohesive and pedagogical perspective. For this purpose, it systematically builds up the physics, modeling and applications of these media upon the foundation of their pure-space and pure-time counterparts.
We analyze a metal-dielectric structure composed of a silicon nanoparticle coupled to a stack of split-ring resonators, and reveal the possibility of optically-induced antiferromagnetic response of such a hybrid meta-molecule with a staggered pattern of the induced magnetization. We show that a hybrid metamaterial created by a periodic lattice of the meta-molecules supports antiferromagnetic modes with a checker-board pattern and the propagation of spin waves, opening new ways for manipulating artificial antiferromagnetism at high frequencies with low-loss materials.
We introduce a chiral metamaterial with strong, non-resonant optical activity, and very low polarization ellipticity. We achieve this by combining a meta-atom and its complementary structure into a meta-molecule, resulting in the coupling of magnetic and electric dipole responses. In contrast to either a pair of crosses, or complementary crosses, this structure has low dispersion in the optical activity at the transmission resonance. We also study the excitation mechanism in this structure, and optimize the optical activity through changing the twist angle.
