Due to electromagnetic coupling, two hybrid magnetic plasmon modes were induced in the structure. Our calculations show that the radiation loss of the structure was greatly suppressed by the hybridization e...<br/>[Phys. Rev. B 80, 115113] Published Tue Sep 15, 2009 T. Q. Li, H. Liu, T. Li, S. M.

Such a transformation exists if, and only if, the space is flat, which greatly restricts the way in whic...<br/>[Phys. Rev. A 80, 033824] Published Tue Sep 15, 2009 Richard A. Crudo and James G.
