Negative radiation pressure in metamaterials explained by light-driven atomic mass density rarefication waves
Abstract The momentum and radiation pressure of light in negative-index metamaterials (NIMs) are commonly expected to reverse their direction from what is observed for normal materials. The negative refraction and inverse Doppler effect of light in NIMs have been experimentally observed, but the equ...
