Surface Wave Cloak from Graded Refractive Index Nanocomposites (2016)
Journal Article
La Spada, L., McManus, T. M., Dyke, A., Haq, S., Zhang, L., Cheng, Q., & Hao, Y. (2016). Surface Wave Cloak from Graded Refractive Index Nanocomposites. Scientific Reports, 6(1), 29363. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep29363

Recently, a great deal of interest has been re-emerged on the possibility to manipulate surface waves, in particular, towards the THz and optical regime. Both concepts of Transformation Optics (TO) and metamaterials have been regarded as one of key e... Read More about Surface Wave Cloak from Graded Refractive Index Nanocomposites.

Isotropic and anisotropic surface wave cloaking techniques (2016)
Journal Article
McManus, T. M., La Spada, L., & Hao, Y. (2016). Isotropic and anisotropic surface wave cloaking techniques. Journal of Optics, 18(4), 044005. https://doi.org/10.1088/2040-8978/18/4/044005

In this paper we compare two different approaches for surface waves cloaking. The first technique is a unique application of Fermat's principle and requires isotropic material properties, but owing to its derivation is limited in its applicability. T...

Metamaterial-based wideband electromagnetic wave absorber (2016)
Journal Article
La Spada, L., & Vegni, L. (2016). Metamaterial-based wideband electromagnetic wave absorber. Optics express, 24(6), 5763. https://doi.org/10.1364/oe.24.005763

In this paper, an analytical and numerical study of a new type of electromagnetic absorber, operating in the infrared and optical regime, is proposed. Absorption is obtained by exploiting Epsilon-Near-Zero materials. The structure electromagnetic pro... Read More about Metamaterial-based wideband electromagnetic wave absorber.
