Abstract Sensors based on metamaterial absorbers are very promising when it comes to high sensitivity and quality factor, cost, and ease of fabrication. The absorbers could be used to sense physical parameters such as temperature, pressure, density as well as they could be used for determining electromagnetic properties of materials and their characterization. In this work, an attempt has been made to explore the various possible applications of these sensors. Metamaterial-based sensors are very popular for its diverse applications in areas such as biomedical, chemical industry, food quality testing, agriculture. Split-ring resonators with various shapes and topologies are the most frequently used structures where the sensing principle is based on electromagnetic interaction of the material under test with the resonator. Overcoming the design challenges using metamaterial sensors involving several constraints such as cost, compactness, reusability, ease in fabrication, and robustness is also addressed.

AbstractSurface plasmons, collective electromagnetic excitations coupled to conduction electron oscillations, enable the manipulation of light–matter interactions at the nanoscale. Plasmon dispersion of metallic structures depends sensitively on their dimensionality and has been intensively studied for fundamental physics as well as applied technologies. Here, we report possible evidence for gate-tunable hybrid plasmons from the dimensionally mixed coupling between one-dimensional (1D) carbon nanotubes and two-dimensional (2D) graphene. In contrast to the carrier density-independent 1D Luttinger liquid plasmons in bare metallic carbon nanotubes, plasmon wavelengths in the 1D-2D heterostructure are modulated by 75% via electrostatic gating while retaining the high figures of merit of 1D plasmons. We propose a theoretical model to describe the electromagnetic interaction between plasmons in nanotubes and graphene, suggesting plasmon hybridization as a possible origin for the observed large plasmon modulation. The mixed-dimensional plasmonic heterostructures may enable diverse designs of tunable plasmonic nanodevices.

The nonrelativistic quantum-field-theoretic Lagrangian which describes an anyon system in the presence of an electromagnetic field is identified. A nonminimal magnetic coupling to the Chern–Simons statistical field as well as to the electromagnetic field together with a direct coupling between both fields are the nontrivial ingredients of the Lagrangian obtained from the nonrelativistic limit of the fermionic relativistic formulation. The results, an electromagnetic gyromagnetic ratio 2 for any spin together with a nontrivial dynamical spin-dependent contact interaction between anyons as well as the spin dependence of the electromagnetic effective action, agree with the quantum-mechanical formulation.

AbstractThe formation of Saturn and its disk is simulated using a new N-body self-gravitational model. It is demonstrated that the formation of the disk and the planet is the result of gravitational contraction of a slowly rotated particle cloud that have a shape of slightly deformed sphere. The sphere was flattened by a coefficient of 0.8 along the axis of rotation. During the gravitational contraction, the major part of the cloud transformed into a planet and a minor part transformed into a disk. The thin structured disk is a result of the electromagnetic interaction in which the magnetic forces acting on charged particles of the cloud originate in the core of the planet. The simulation program gives such parameters of Saturn as the escape velocity of about 35 km/s at the surface, density, rotational velocities of the rings and temperature distribution.

In a previous work, the authors presented a semianalytical treatment of the electromagnetic field distribution in the case of a straight conductor carrying a sinusoidal current parallel to a thin conducting plate. The result of this investigation is extended here to the evaluation of the repulsive forces accompanying this type of electromagnetic interaction. The variation of such forces with geometric parameters is studied in the presence of a single conductor, and in the case of several conductors laying in a plane parallel to the surface of the material submitted to the induction phenomenon. The problem of lévitation in steady-state conditions is examined, in the light of this arrangement, for various conducting materials. Graphs illustrate the results obtained and make evident their practical interest particularly in the stationary case of magnetically levitated vehicles.
