We experimentally demonstrate magnetic wire in a coupled, cut-wire pair-based metasurface operating at the terahertz frequencies. A dominant transverse magnetic dipole (non-axial circulating conduction current) is excited in one of the plasmonic wires that constitute the coupled system, whereas the other wire remains electric. Despite having large asymmetry-induced strong radiation channels in such a metasurface, non-radiative current distributions are obtained as a direct consequence of interaction between the electric and magnetic wire(s). We demonstrate a versatile platform to transform an electric to a magnetic wire and vice-versa through asymmetry-induced polymorphic hybridization with potential applications in photonic/electrical integrated circuits.
We experimentally demonstrate thickness-dependent resonance tuning in planar terahertz superconducting metamaterials. Inductive-capacitive resonance of arrays of split-ring resonators fabricated from 50, 100, and 200 nm thick YBa2Cu3O7−δ (YBCO) and gold films were characterized and compared as a function of temperature. In the YBCO metamaterials the resonance frequency strongly depends on the thickness, and they show high thermal tunability in both resonance strength and frequency below the superconducting transition temperature, where the imaginary conductivity varies by three orders of magnitude. In contrast, the resonance in the gold metamaterials exhibits little thickness-dependence and very small tunability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
