Metamaterials are artificially engineered devices that go beyond the properties of
conventional materials in nature. Metamaterials allow for the creation of negative refractive …

Sub-wavelength diffractive optics, commonly known as meta-optics, present a complex
numerical simulation challenge, due to their multi-scale nature. The behavior of constituent …

This book teaches the finite-difference frequency-domain (FDFD) method from the simplest
concepts to advanced three-dimensional simulations. It uses plain language and high …

Electromagnetic logging while drilling (LWD) is one of the key technologies of the
geosteering and formation evaluation for high-angle and horizontal wells. In this paper, we …

Discovering nanoscale phenomena to sense biorecognition events introduces new
perspectives to exploit nanoscience and nanotechnology for bioanalytical purposes. Here …

This chapter introduces the tools and methodologies that can be used to engineer the
dispersion and anisotropy of periodic electromagnetic structures. The theory and concepts …

The optical response of a metal-dielectric multilayer structure consisting of a hybrid Au/Ag
grating and an adhesive layer sandwiched between two dielectric layers has been analyzed …

The incorporation of biomacromolecules onto silicon waveguiding microstructures
constitutes a growing trend that pushes towards compact and miniaturized biosensing …

An accurate method to model the optical behaviour of liquid crystal (LC) devices, particularly
suited to devices where diffractive effects are present is described here. An accurate …

Supervised machine learning algorithms usually require huge labeled data sets to produce
sufficiently good results. For many applications, these data sets are still not available today …
