We investigate the effect on wave propagation of array packing and electromagnetic coupling between spheres in a three-dimensional (3D) lattice of microspheres with large permittivity that exhibit strong magnetic polarizability. We report on the complex wavenumber of Bloch waves in the lattice when each sphere is assu…

Mesostructured manganese oxide (Mn3 O4 ) is prepared by a soft-templating method employing sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as a structure-directing agent. By removing the template from the as-prepared mesostructured Mn3 O4 by extraction or calcination, we successfully synthesized highly crystallized mesoporous Mn3 O4 or…
