Consistent Formulation

The displacement field generated by the reflection and refraction of plane (time harmonic) elastic waves by finite obstacles of arbitrary shape, in the neighborhood of a plane interface between two elastic media, is investigated. The technique employed allows a consistent formulation of the problem for both two and three dimensions, and is not limited either to boundary shapes which are level surfaces in appropriate coordinate systems, i.e., circular cylinders, spheres, etc., or to closed boundary curves or surfaces. The approach is due to Twersky, and has been applied to many problems of the scattering of electromagnetic waves. The method consists of expressing the net field due to all multiple scattering in terms of the field reflected from each boundary in isolation when subjected to an incident plane elastic wave. Thus the technique makes use of more elemental scattering problems whose solutions are extant. By way of illustration, a numerical solution to the scattering of a plane elastic wave by a rigid circular cylindrical obstacle adjacent to a plane free surface is considered.

Dielectric Structures

Metamaterials are composed of periodic subwavelength metallic/dielectric structures that resonantly couple to the electric and magnetic fields of the incident electromagnetic waves, exhibiting unprecedented properties which are most typical within the context of the electromagnetic domain. However, the practical application of metamaterials is found challenging due to the high losses, strong dispersion associated with the resonant responses, and the difficulty in the fabrication of nanoscale 3D structures. The optical metasurface is termed as 2D metamaterials that inherent all of the properties of metamaterials and also provide a solution to the limitation of the conventional metamaterials. Over the past few years, metasurfaces; have been employed for the design and fabrication of optical elements and systems with abilities that surpass the performance of conventional diffractive optical elements. Metasurfaces can be fabricated using standard lithography and nanoimprinting methods, which is easier campared to the fabrication of the counterpart 3 days metamaterials. In this review article, the progress of the research on metasurfaces is illustrated. Concepts of anomalous reflection and refraction, applications of metasurfaces with the Pancharatanm-Berry Phase, and Huygens metasurface are discussed. The development of soft metasurface opens up a new dimension of application zone in conformal or wearable photonics. The progress of soft metasurface has also been discussed in this review. Meta-devices that are being developed with the principle of the shaping of wavefronts are elucidated in this review. Furthermore, it has been established that properties of novel optical metasurface can be modulated by the change in mechanical, electrical, or optical stimuli which leads to the development of dynamic metasurface. Research thrusts over the area of tunable metasurface has been reviewed in this article. Over the recent year, it has been found that optical fibers and metasurface are coagulated for the development of optical devices with the advantages of both domains. The metasurface with lab-on fiber-based devices is being discussed in this review paper. Finally, research trends, challenges, and future scope of the work are summarized in the conclusion part of the article.‬‬‬‬‬‬‬
