When a particle beam travels through an accelerator structure like the LHC, energy is lost to the structure itself. This phenomenon is described through the beam-coupling impedance and is ideally reduced to improve beam quality and energy efficiency. In this paper, the use of metamaterials with negative permeability i…

We examine the excitation of resonant modes inside eccentrically layered cylindrical active nano-particles. The nano-particle is a three-layer structure comprised of a silica core, a free-space middle layer, and an outer shell of silver. It is shown that a concentric configuration, initially designed to excite e.g., a…

In this paper we present our recent work on plasmonic color printing using metallic nanostructures. This is a new form of structural color where colors arise due to the local resonances of metallic nanostructures instead of diffractive effects. These metal nanostructures combined with a backreflector support plasmon r…
