Negative radiation pressure in metamaterials explained by light-driven atomic mass density rarefication waves

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Mikko Partanen from the Aalto University have published the research: Negative radiation pressure in metamaterials explained by light-driven atomic mass density rarefication waves, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
• what: In contrast to normal materials, the total momentum of light in NIMs can be smaller than the momentum of light in vacuum.
• how: The authors also note that in this work the conventional boundary conditions of the EM fields are used at all material interfaces. Periodic boundary conditions are applied in the direction of the y axis in Fig 3 . . .
