What is Black Hole?

1. Laplace’s view

2. Schwarzschild’s solution of Einstein’s
vacuum field equation (general relativity)
Analogy Between Mechanics and
Electromagnetic

Curved space----inhomogeneous
metamaterial

Least action principle----Fermat’s principle
Characteristics

Non-resonant structure—broad band
light absorption

Omnidirectional

Lossy core and lossless shell.
Usage

Cross-talk reduction

Thermal light emitting source

Solar light harvesting
Theoretic Analysis

Hamilton equations:

p:generalized momentum q:generalized
coordinate

H: Hamiltonian
Theoretic Analysis

For cylindrical structure,
use semiclassical analysis[3]

Inhomogeneous permittivity—
potential.
different
Inhomogeneous Permeability

For n=-1, 1, 2, 3

Choose n=2
easiest to fabricate
Structures

Lossy circular inner core—ELC resonator
(20 layers)

Lossless circular shell—I-shaped
metamaterials (40 layers)
ELC resonator
