Consider this gedankenexperiment: Would American lawyers be happy with the converse, such as arguing a complex matter at the intersection of First Amendment and defamation law, on the law only, before a panel consisting of a mechanical engineer, a particle physicist, and a clinical psychologist, none of whom had taken even a single law-school course?

  • The insertion of a homogeneous, anisotropic, thin layer between two layers of the same chiral STF is shown to result in the exhibition of ultranarrow-bandpass characteristics, which can be tuned by rotating the three-layer structure. aether-drag beam-deformation chirality coherence complexity coupled-wave-analysis double-layer effective-medium electrodynamics entanglement finite-difference floquet-bloch friction gedankenexperiment geometric-phase goos-haenchen gratings heterostructures history imbert-fedorov inhomgeneous-media interface-plasmons laguerre-gaussian-beams lossy-medium magneto-optical matter-waves metal-film metal-surface metamaterials mode-coupling non-paraxial-optics non-specular-effects optical-activity optical-momentum optical-vortices orbital-angular-momentum paraxial-optics phase-matching photonic-crystals polarisation quantum-information quantum-optics quantum-state-discrimination quantum-theory rotating-light second-harmonic-generation solids solitons spatial-dispersion spin-hall-effect-of-light surface-roughness surface-waves symmetry-violation uncertainty-principle vortices waveguides CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. —  CiteULike: Everyone's library

  • This points to the need for an exact solution of the grating-diffraction problem for both polarizations, including the effect of a finite conductivity at optical frequencies. aether-drag beam-deformation chirality coherence complexity coupled-wave-analysis double-layer effective-medium electrodynamics entanglement finite-difference floquet-bloch friction gedankenexperiment geometric-phase goos-haenchen gratings heterostructures history imbert-fedorov inhomgeneous-media interface-plasmons laguerre-gaussian-beams lossy-medium magneto-optical matter-waves metal-film metal-surface metamaterials mode-coupling non-paraxial-optics non-specular-effects optical-activity optical-momentum optical-vortices orbital-angular-momentum paraxial-optics phase-matching photonic-crystals polarisation quantum-information quantum-optics quantum-state-discrimination quantum-theory second-harmonic-generation solids solitons spatial-dispersion spin-hall-effect-of-light surface-roughness surface-waves symmetry-violation uncertainty-principle waveguides CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. —  CiteULike: Everyone's library
  • Moreover, it is numerically shown that the negative refraction results from relatively large chirality parameter in chiral composites compared to the corresponding parameters in the components. aether-drag beam-deformation chirality coherence complexity coupled-wave-analysis double-layer effective-medium electrodynamics entanglement finite-difference floquet-bloch friction gedankenexperiment geometric-phase goos-haenchen gratings heterostructures history imbert-fedorov inhomgeneous-media interface-plasmons laguerre-gaussian-beams lossy-medium magneto-optical matter-waves metal-film metal-surface metamaterials mode-coupling non-paraxial-optics non-specular-effects optical-activity optical-momentum optical-vortices orbital-angular-momentum paraxial-optics phase-matching photonic-crystals polarisation quantum-information quantum-optics quantum-state-discrimination quantum-theory second-harmonic-generation solids solitons spatial-dispersion spin-hall-effect-of-light surface-roughness surface-waves symmetry-violation uncertainty-principle waveguides CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. —  CiteULike: Everyone's library
