“…Furthermore, from the above derivation suggests that the ENZ resonance is more advantageous for transmission than the ENP resonance, because the prefactor fullfills for ǫ > 0 typically |A| < 1. Note, that both regimes of ENZ and ENP were discussed in the context of diffraction suppressed hyperbolic lensing [44], using the canalization regime for hyperbolic lensing [72,73] and directed dipole emission [45]. In these cases, the advantage of using ENZ and ENP resonances lies in the resulting very flat iso-frequency line of the extraordinary modes so that the group velocity is mainly directed along the optical axis for a very broad band of lateral wavenumbers κ.…”

We study radiative energy transfer between a donor-acceptor pair across a hyperbolic metamaterial slab. We show that similar to a perfect lens a hyperbolic lens allows for giant energy transfer rates. For a realistic realization of a hyperbolic multilayer metamaterial we find an enhancement of up to three orders of magnitude with respect to the transfer rates across a plasmonic silver film of the same size especially for frequencies which coincide with the epsilon-near zero and the epsilonnear pole frequencies. Furthermore, we compare exact results based on the S-matrix method with results obtained from effective medium theory. Our finding of very large dipole-dipole interaction at distances of the order of a wavelength has important consequences for producing radiative heat transfer, quantum entanglement etc.

“…It could be shown that they allow for a broadbandenhanced LDOS [3], broadband-enhanced spontaneous emission [4][5][6][7][8][9][10], hyperbolic lensing [11][12][13][14][15], negative refraction [16,17], super absorption [18], enhanced Förster energy transfer [19][20][21], and self-induced torques [22]. HM can be artificially fabricated by a periodic layout of subwavelength metal and dielectric components for applications in the visible.…”

Abstract:We review the near-field radiative heat flux between hyperbolic materials focusing on multilayer hyperbolic meta-materials. We discuss the formation of the hyperbolic bands, the impact of ordering of the multilayer slabs, as well as the impact of the first single layer on the heat transfer. Furthermore, we compare the contribution of surface modes to that of hyperbolic modes. Finally, we also compare the exact results with predictions from effective medium theory.

“…Further advance was connected with the rapid development of hyperbolic metamaterials , which feature hyperbolic isofrequency contours and thereby support extremely large wave vectors. Unique dispersion of hyperbolic metamaterials proved useful for nonlinear processes . In particular, the advantages of hyperbolic dispersion, and of combining that with the normal dispersion at other frequencies, brought a new degree of freedom to realize phase matching in layered structures , potentially enabling the use of non‐conventional nonlinear dielectrics.…”

This is an overview of the recent achievements in exploiting novel degrees of freedom in metamaterial design, which enable sophisticated nonlinear coupling mechanisms and bring enhancement to nonlinear behavior. One of the novel paradigms makes use of mechanical feedback, achieved by embedding electromagnetic resonators within elastic medium or engineering explicit elastic links between them, such as rotational feedback. These designs provide broad‐band self‐adjustable resonances, self‐oscillations, chaotic regimes, nonlinear chirality and, spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking. With this respect, a range of implementations has been analyzed, from flexible helices for microwaves to artificial electrostriction in optics. Another concept benefits from multi‐frequency operation, where the properties in completely distinct frequency ranges become entangled through specific metamaterial design –for example, direct optical coupling can be introduced between microwave resonators, providing an independent interaction channel. It was also found that hyperbolic metamaterials can bring notable benefits to classical nonlinear processes by imposing unusual phase matching solutions, with a rich choice of matching combinations. Finally, the boundary structure of metamaterials add yet another possibility to control their properties. Overall, the recent progress in these topics suggests a very positive outlook into the future of nonlinear metamaterials.
