• Photonic topological insulators. (2012, methodology): “Metamaterials with this property have recently attracted significant attention in the context of “transformation optics” [ 35, 36, 37], and were used to emulate various phenomena of celestial mechanics in optics [ 38, 39] and to design optical invisibility cloaks [ 36, 40].”
• Hyperbolic Metamaterials (2015, background): “blocks in metamaterial design offer much more freedom in constructing analogues of various exotic spacetime metrics, such as black holes [52-56], wormholes [57,58], spinning cosmic strings [59], and even the metric of Big Bang itself [15].”
• Trapping light by mimicking gravitational lensing (2013, neutral): “Recently, artificial optical materials were proposed to study the various aspects of curved spacetimes such as light trapping and Hawking’s radiation [1-6].”
