A cross-disciplinary guide to active optical metamaterials

Focused on artificial materials engineered for optical and photonic functions, this volume connects foundational concepts with the work of building and assessing devices. It addresses active metamaterials whose properties can be tuned or switched, alongside phenomena including the control and enhancement of spontaneous emission. Coverage moves across theory, modelling, design, fabrication, characterization, and measurement, framing metamaterials as functional material platforms rather than a purely abstract physics topic. The emphasis on both phenomena and practical device applications makes the book a compact reference point for understanding how optical metamaterial concepts are developed into photonic technologies.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Physics and photonics students studying optical metamaterials
  • Researchers working on tunable, active, or switchable photonic materials
  • Engineers interested in metamaterial device design, fabrication, and measurement

Book overview

Phenomena of Optical Metamaterials provides an overview of phenomena enabled by artificial and designed metamaterials and their application for photonic devices. The book explores the study of active metamaterials with tunable and switchable properties and novel functionalities, such as the control of spontaneous emission and enhancement. Topics addressed cover theory, modelling and design, applications in practical devices, fabrication, characterization, and measurement, thus helping readers understand and develop new artificial, functional materials.
