“…In the tight-binding approximation, this leads to a cosine-shaped energy band, replacing the degenerate discrete energy levels. The inductive coupling between SRR can also give rise to a novel type of waves called magnetoinductive waves [474][475][476], which have been observed experimentally at 60 MHz frequency [477] and at optical frequencies [478]. A third contribution to the width of the magnetic resonance is radiation damping arising from oscillating electric dipoles.…”

Periodic nanostructures in photonics facilitate a far-reaching control of light propagation and light-matter interaction. This article reviews the current status of this subject, including both recent progress and well-established results. The primary focus is on the basic physical principles and potential applications associated with the existence of Bragg scattering, photonic band structures, and engineered effective-medium properties in periodic dielectric and metallo-dielectric systems. In addition, we discuss advantages and limitations of various theoretical and numerical approaches as well as of those fabrication techniques that have specifically been developed for this field.

“…Sometimes, especially when the elements are very close, this coupling effect is not negligible and will have a substantial effect on the metamaterial's properties. In recent years, the coupling effect in such materials has aroused more attention from researchers undertaking studies on topics such as pairs of split-ring resonators [16][17][18], pairs of nano-rods [19][20], magnetic wave along meta-elements [21][22][23][24], and other interesting coupled metamaterials [25]. The possible related applications have also been reported by several groups.…”

This paper investigates the radiation properties of two coupled split-ring resonators (SRRs). Due to electromagnetic coupling, two hybrid magnetic plasmon modes were induced in the structure. Our calculations show that the radiation loss of the structure was greatly suppressed by the hybridization effect. This led to a remarkable increase in the Q-factor of the coupled system compared to the single SRR. By adjusting the distance between the two SRRs, the Q-factor changed correspondingly due to different electromagnetic coupling strengths. This resulted in a coupled structure that functioned as a new type of nanocavity with an adjustable Q-factor.

“…A kind of polariton mode could be formed by the interaction between the electromagnetic and MI waves, resulting in a tenability of the range where μ becomes negative [57]. In a biperiodic chain of magnetic resonators, the dispersion of the MI wave will be split into two branches analogous to acoustic waves in solids, and this can be used to obtain specified dispersion properties [59,60]. In addition to this kind of MI wave, electro-inductive (EI) waves were also reported in the microwave range [61].…”

Although the invention of the metamaterials has stimulated the interest of many researchers and possesses many important applications, the basic design idea is very simple: composing effective media from many small structured elements and controlling its artificial EM properties. According to the effective-media model, the coupling interactions between the elements in metamaterials are somewhat ignored; therefore, the effective properties of metamaterials can be viewed as the "averaged effect" of the resonance property of the individual elements. However, the coupling interaction between elements should always exist when they are arranged into metamaterials. Sometimes, especially when the elements are very close, this coupling effect is not negligible and will have a substantial effect on the metamaterials' properties. In recent years, it has been shown that the interaction between resonance elements in metamaterials could lead to some novel phenomena and interesting applications that do not exist in conventional uncoupled metamaterials. In this paper, we will give a review of these recent developments in coupled metamaterials. For the "meta-molecule" composed of several identical resonators, the coupling between these units produces multiple discrete resonance modes due to hybridization. In the case of a "meta-crystal" comprising an infinite number of resonators, these multiple discrete resonances can be extended to form a continuous frequency band by strong coupling. This kind of broadband and tunable coupled metamaterial may have interesting applications. Many novel metamaterials and nanophotonic devices could be developed from coupled resonator systems in the future.
