PROGRAMMABLE FOODS. “Here, we devise meta-atoms with tailored fracture properties to control mouthfeel sensory experience.” https://lnkd.in/eD7iFAGi View in LinkedIn

COUPLED FIELDS. “The electric and magnetic dipole moments (p and m) of meta-atoms are not always independent. They can be mutually coupled, i.e. the both components of incident electromagnetic field (E and H) simultaneously induce p and m. This effect is usually called bianisotropy (BA).” https://lnkd.in/e5fJZNfb View in LinkedIn

PROGRAMMABLE METAMATERIALS. “In this way, many fascinating effects have already been demonstrated and explained such as non-radiating anapole effect, directional scattering, cloaking and invisibility effects.” https://lnkd.in/e5fJZNfb View in LinkedIn

NANOSCALE PROPERTIES. “As soon as the meta-atoms are usually sufficiently smaller than the wavelength, the scattered field can be well described by only the electric (ED) and magnetic (MD) dipoles that makes it extremely helpful to interpret and predict the optical properties of single meta-atoms and their ensembles.” https://lnkd.in/e5fJZNfb View in LinkedIn

MAGNETIC POLARIZATION. “In the scattered field domain, the meta-atoms can be considered as effective point scatterers with specific polarizabilities corresponding to its dominant multipole moments.” https://lnkd.in/e5fJZNfb View in LinkedIn

SUMMARY. “We show that the origin of bianisotropy is fully defined by the symmetry of the meta-atom rather than its size.” A strange and mystical paper. https://lnkd.in/e5fJZNfb View in LinkedIn

THE GENERAL ASSUMPTION. “Quantum Fundamentalism? Everything in the universe (if not the universe as a whole) is fundamentally of a quantum nature and ultimately describable in quantum-mechanical terms.” https://lnkd.in/eauD5rnp View in LinkedIn

CONCEPT. “General idea of multipolar bianisotropy. Vector spherical harmonics can be divided into even and odd under inversion operation. Inversion symmetry — No bianisotropy. No inversion symmetry — Bianisotropy.” https://lnkd.in/e5fJZNfb View in LinkedIn

DOGMA. “Against this background, it is hardly surprising that many are attracted to the idea that quantum mechanics, or some of its successors like quantum field theory or string theory, is a universal and fundamental theory of the world.” https://lnkd.in/eauD5rnp View in LinkedIn
