Negative Refraction in Indefinite Materials

Article Preview

Abstract:

Negative refraction is a fantastic optical property and attracts more and more attentions. As first proposed, materials with negative permittivity and negative permeability simultaneously exhibit negative refraction. Recently, negative refraction was found in the indefinite medium based on the strong anisotropy of permittivity. In this paper, the theory of the negative refraction in the anisotropic materials and the research progress in recent years were reviewed.
