Description:
Negative refraction is currently achieved by driving the magnetic permeability and electrical permittivity simultaneously negative, thus requiring two separate resonances in the refracting material. The introduction of a single chiral resonance leads to negative refraction of one polarization, resulting in improved and simplified designs of negatively refracting materials and opening previously unknown avenues of investigation in this fast-growing subject.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pendry, J B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Nov 19;306(5700):1353-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physics, Blackett Laboratory, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15550665" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
