Left handed modes in linear arrays of isotropic particles with electric and magnetic response

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

We study the properties of dipolar wave propagation in linear chains of isotropic particles with independent electric and magnetic response, embedded in vacuum. It is shown that transverse-polarization left-handed waves can be supported by the structure even if the chain's particles possess positive polar-izabilities and no Bi-isotropy; the needed Bi-isotropy is provided by the propagator instead of by the particle's local properties. In contrast to the transverse modes in chains that consist of purely electric particles, the left-handed modes dispersion lack the lightline branch since their dipolar features are not aligned with the electric and magnetic fields of a right-handed plane-wave solution in free space.
