Superresolution, extraordinary transmission, total absorption, and localization of electromagnetic waves are currently attracting growing attention. These phenomena are related to different physical objects and are usually studied within the context of different, sometimes rather sophisticated, physical approaches. Remarkably, all these seemingly unrelated phenomena owe their origin to the same underlying physical mechanism - wave interaction with an open resonator. Here we show that it is possible to describe all of these effects in a unified way, mapping each system onto a simple resonator model. Such description provides a thorough understanding of the phenomena, explains all the main features of their complex behaviour, and enables to control the system via the resonator parameters: eigenfrequencies, Q-factors, and coupling coefficients.

- Quantum Simulation (2013, methodology): “The behavior of tunable metamaterials (regular structures obtained from the periodic arrangement of mesoscopic building blocks) in the quantum regime could be seen as a quantum simulation of materials composed of regular atomic structures (Bliokh et al., 2008; Rakhmanov et al., 2010, 2008).”
