We introduce a plasmon hybridization picture to understand the optical properties of double split-ring resonator metamaterials. The analysis is based on the calculated reflectance spectra from a finite-integration time-domain algorithm. Field distributions of the double split-ring resonators at the resonant frequencies confirm the results from the plasmon hybridization analysis. We demonstrate that the plasmon hybridization is a simple and powerful tool for understanding and designing metamaterials in the near infrared and visible regime.

Biosensors operating in the terahertz (THz) region are gaining substantial interest in biomedical analysis due to their significant potential for high-sensitivity trace-amount solution detection. However, progress in compact, high-sensitivity chips and methods for simple, rapid and trace-level measurements is limited by the spatial resolution of THz waves and their strong absorption in polar solvents. In this work, a compact nonlinear optical crystal (NLOC)-based reflective THz biosensor with a few arrays of asymmetrical meta-atoms was developed.

This article presents a symmetrical reduced-size eight-element MIMO antenna array with high electromagnetic isolation among radiators. The array utilizes easy-to-build techniques to cover the n77 and n78 new radio (NR) bands. It is based on an octagonal double-negative metamaterial split-ring resonator (SRR), which enables a size reduction of over 50% for the radiators compared to a conventional disc monopole antenna by increasing the slow-wave factor.

Article Synopsis
- The study explores terahertz (THz) metasurface devices, which have unique dielectric properties and can mimic natural materials’ behaviors at THz frequencies, using a model known as the Lorentz model.
- Traditional methods for analyzing these devices require testing numerous structural arrays, making it challenging to evaluate individual components directly.
- By utilizing a specialized THz time-domain spectrometer, the research successfully examined the properties of single-metal double-gap split-ring resonators and antennas, revealing that their dispersion relations can resemble those of natural materials, enhancing our understanding of THz metasurfaces.

A nonlinear RLC resonator is investigated experimentally and numerically using bifurcation analysis. The nonlinearity is due to the parallel combination of a semiconductor rectifier diode and a fixed capacitor. The diode's junction capacitance, diffusion capacitance, and DC current-voltage relation each contribute to the nonlinearity.
