Journal ArticleDOI
Sub-Diffraction-Limited Optical Imaging with a Silver Superlens
TL;DR: This work demonstrated sub–diffraction-limited imaging with 60-nanometer half-pitch resolution, or one-sixth of the illumination wavelength, using silver as a natural optical superlens and showed that arbitrary nanostructures can be imaged with good fidelity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrasonic metamaterials with negative modulus
Nicholas X. Fang,Dongjuan Xi,Jianyi Xu,Muralidhar Ambati,Werayut Srituravanich,Cheng Sun,Xiang Zhang +6 more
TL;DR: A new class of ultrasonic metamaterials consisting of an array of subwavelength Helmholtz resonators with designed acoustic inductance and capacitance with an effective dynamic modulus with negative values near the resonance frequency is reported.

TL;DR: A class of microarchitected materials that maintain a nearly constant stiffness per unit mass density, even at ultralow density is reported, which derives from a network of nearly isotropic microscale unit cells with high structural connectivity and nanoscale features, whose structural members are designed to carry loads in tension or compression.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is shown that magnetic response at terahertz frequencies can be achieved in a planar structure composed of nonmagnetic conductive resonant elements and suggested that artificial magnetic structures, or hybrid structures that combine natural and artificial magnetic materials, can play a key role in teraHertz devices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polaritons in layered two-dimensional materials
Tony Low,Andrey Chaves,Joshua D. Caldwell,Anshuman Kumar,Anshuman Kumar,Nicholas X. Fang,Phaedon Avouris,Tony F. Heinz,Francisco Guinea,Francisco Guinea,Luis Martín-Moreno,Frank H. L. Koppens,Frank H. L. Koppens +12 more
TL;DR: The emerging field of 2D material polaritonics and their hybrids provide enticing avenues for manipulating light-matter interactions across the visible, infrared to terahertz spectral ranges, with new optical control beyond what can be achieved using traditional bulk materials.
