Quantum Optical Effective-Medium Theory for Layered Metamaterials at Any Angle of Incidence
The quantum optics of metamaterials starts with the question of whether the same effective-medium theories apply as in classical optics. In general, the answer is negative. For active plasmonics but also for some passive metamaterials, we show that an additional effective-medium parameter is indispe...
