... to take the next step and propose a new systematic technique for extracting the quadrupolarisability of planar metamaterial scatterers. Design/methodology/approach Firstly, it is assumed that the particle, under study, can be modelled as a set of dipole and quadrupole moments, and by utilising...

...Vakhtang Jandieri; Lana Okropiridze; Kiyotoshi Yasumoto; Daniel Erni; Jaromir Pistora Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop a rigorous self-contained formulation for analyzing electromagnetic scattering by grating of plasmonic nanorods. The authors investigate this structure from...

... is to investigate the scattering properties of carbon nanotubes, either isolated or arranged in arrays. The peculiar behaviour of such innovative materials is studied, taking also into account the finite length of the structure and the dependence of the scattering field from the operating temperature. Design...

...) finite crystal is considered. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, a new route for obtaining the scattered field by nonlinear obstacles is proposed. The basic idea consists in simulating the real incident field (e.g. plane waves) by a virtual field emitted by an appropriate antenna, located...
