These opportunities arise from the formal analogy that exists between light propagation in vacuous curved spacetime and in a certain nonhomogeneous bianisotropic medium, called a Tamm medium. International Journal of Antennas and Propagation. Metamaterials offer opportunities to explore curved-spacetime scenarios which would otherwise be impractical or impossible to study. We experimentally demonstrate a computer generated hologram operating at a visible wavelength by a metasurface consisting of Babinet-inverted nano-antennas perforated on a 30-nm-thick gold film. This paper presents a survey of the development of reconfigurable and tunable metamaterial technology as well as of the applications where such capabilities are valuable. A metasurface consisting a plasmonic nano-antenna array can introduce an abrupt phase discontinuity at the interface and therefore have unparalleled wave-front control over the incident light. Metasurfaces (thin metamaterial layers) can introduce an additional spatially non-uniform phase in the incoming wave, thereby affecting its propagating characteristics. Micrometer-sized metasurface lenses (metalenses) are made with the same technique.ĪB - The control of phase plays a fundamental role in wave propagation.
