Embodiment
" super material " refers to artificial composite structure or the composite material that some have the not available extraordinary physical property of natural material.By the structurally ordered design on the key physical yardstick at material, can break through the restriction of some apparent natural law, thereby obtain the meta-materials function that exceeds the intrinsic common character of nature.
Three key characters that " super material " has:
(1) " super material " normally has novel artificial structure's composite material;
(2) " super material " has extraordinary physical property (not available in natural material often);
(3) " super material " character is determined jointly by the intrinsic properties of constituent material and artificial micro-structural wherein.
As described in Fig. 1 to 4, the super material of local optical axis rotation of the present invention, comprise base material 1 and be attached to the multiple artificial micro-structural 2 on base material 1, the electromagnetic parameter tensor of at least one artificial micro-structural 2 is different from other place, and super material is rotated at other place relatively at this local optical axis.Electromagnetic parameter herein refers to dielectric constant and magnetic permeability.Electromagnetic parameter tensor difference can have following several situation, permittivity tensor difference, and permeability tensor difference, permittivity tensor is all different from permeability tensor.The difference of electromagnetic parameter tensor is determining different index ellipsoid 20, has therefore determined different optical axis directions.Therefore change local electromagnetic parameter tensor, can reach the object of the local optical axis of rotation.Rotation herein refers to that the optical axis of the different one or more parts of electromagnetic parameter tensor has one with respect to the optical axis at other place and is not equal to 0 angle.
As one embodiment of the present of invention, described base material 1, by stacking formation of multiple plate shape substrates that are parallel to each other 11, is all attached with multiple artificial micro-structurals 2 on each plate shape substrates 11.If Fig. 3 is to as shown in Fig. 4, plate shape substrates 11 stacking directions are the direction perpendicular to paper.More preferably, on each plate shape substrates 11, the structure that all people make micro-structural 2 is identical, and it is also identical that all people make micro-structural 2 arranging on each plate shape substrates 11, if we regard a plate shape substrates and the artificial micro-structural of adhering on it as assembly, whole super material is equivalent to be formed by the multiple described stack of components being parallel to each other.The benefit of doing is like this to simplify technique, and the structure of certain artificial micro-structural is not identical also passable, because the artificial micro-structural of different structure also can realize identical electromagnetic parameter tensor.Actual when doing product, can also encapsulate it, make to can't see artificial micro-structural from outside, the material of encapsulation is identical with base material.
As an embodiment, described artificial micro-structural 2 is metal micro structure, and described each metal micro structure is the figuratum metal wire being attached on plate shape substrates 11 of a tool.The pattern of described metal wire is non-90 degree Rotational Symmetry figures, non-90 degree Rotational Symmetry figures are the rotational symmetric relative concepts of 90 degree, so-called 90 degree Rotational Symmetries refer to, one figure along its symmetrical centre to any direction 90-degree rotation after all with former graphs coincide, there is the cell that the metal micro structure of this figure forms and show isotropism (be every of electromagnetic parameter tensor all identical) in cell space.Otherwise, there are the cells that the metal micro structures of the rotational symmetric figure of non-90 degree form and show as anisotropy (being not to be that the electromagnetic parameter tensor of every is all identical in cell space).Be anisotropic metal micro structure, after it rotates to an angle (this angle ensures not overlap after rotation), its electromagnetic parameter tensor space is arranged and is changed, and therefore index ellipsoid also changes, thereby optical axis has correspondingly also been realized rotation.
As an embodiment, described metal wire is attached on plate shape substrates 11 by etching, plating, brill quarter, photoetching, electronics is carved or ion is carved method.Certainly, can be also other feasible processing methods such as three-dimensional laser processing.
In the case of the characteristic of incident electromagnetic wave is definite, the electromagnetic characteristic of outgoing as required (local optical axis changes can realize the function that a lot of common materials cannot be realized, make the characteristic of outgoing wave can manual control) designs the super material of local optical axis rotation of the present invention.For example, can first select the material of base material and metal micro structure, then obtain by pattern, design size and/or metal micro structure the arranging in space that changes metal micro structure the outgoing electromagnetic characteristics of wanting.This be because, by changing pattern, design size and/or metal micro structure the arranging in space of metal micro structure, can change electromagnetic parameter ε and the μ of each cell in super material space, thereby the refractive index n that changes respective cells, the optical axis direction of each cell can designed, designed.How as for the pattern that obtains metal micro structure, design size and/or metal micro structure arranging in space, this method is multiple, give an example, can obtain by reverse computer simulation, first determine that according to the outgoing electromagnetic characteristics of wanting the electromagnetic parameter of super material polarization converter entirety distributes, calculate again the electromagnetic parameter distribution of each cell space from entirety, select the pattern of corresponding artificial micro-structural according to the electromagnetic parameter of this each cell, design size and/or metal micro structure arranging in space (having deposited in advance various metals micro-structural data in computer).Can use the method for exhaustion to the design of each cell, for example first select a metal micro structure with specific pattern, calculate electromagnetic parameter, the contrast that the result obtaining and we are wanted, contrast recirculation repeatedly, till the electromagnetic parameter that finds us to want, if found, the design parameter that has completed metal micro structure is selected; If do not find, change a kind of metal micro structure of pattern, repeat circulation above, till the electromagnetic parameter that finds us to want.If still do not found, said process also can not stop.That is to say that after the metal micro structure of the electromagnetic parameter that has only found our needs, program just can stop.Because this process is all completed by computer, therefore, seem complicated, in fact can complete soon.
