All-angle zero reflection at metamaterial surfaces (2008)
Li, Xin, Liang, Zixian, Liu, Xiaohan, Jiang, Xunya, Zi, Jian
The authors study theoretically reflection on the surface of a metamaterial with a hyperbolic dispersion. It is found that reflection is strongly dependent on how the surface is terminated with...
Research of Practical Indoor Guidance Platform Using Fluorescent Light Communication (2008)
LIU, Xiaohan, MAKINO, Hideo, KOBAYASHI, Suguru, MAEDA, Yoshinobu
This article presents an indoor positioning and communication platform, using fluorescent lights. We set up a practical implementation of a VLC (Visible Light Communication) system in a University...
Extrinsic photonic crystals (2005)
Xu, Chun, Han, Dezhuan, Wang, Xin, Liu, Xiaohan, Zi, Jian
Doped semiconductors are intrinsically homogeneous media. However, by applying an external magnetic field that has a spatially periodic variation, doped semiconductors can behave extrinsically like...
Coloration strategies in peacock feathers
Zi, Jian, Yu, Xindi, Li, Yizhou, Hu, Xinhua, Xu, Chun, Wang, Xingjun, ...
We report the mechanism of color production in peacock feathers. We find that the cortex in differently colored barbules, which contains a 2D photonic-crystal structure, is responsible for...
