When the dispersion transits from the elliptic (epsilon-positive) to hyperbolic (epsilon-indefinite) regime, a very specific isofrequency surface arises which implies an extraordinary Purcell factor in spite of noticeable optical losses.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-03-18T21:02:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "topological transition", "nanowire medium", "radiative implication", "specific isofrequency surface arises", "extraordinary purcell factor" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
