| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We studied electromagnetism in structured metamaterials with simultaneous time-reversal and space-inversion symmetry breaking by magnetism and chirality. Experimental direct observation of optical magnetochiral effects by a single metamolecule with magnetism and chirality was demonstrated at microwave frequencies. Numerical simulations reproduced well the experimental results and predicted the emergence of giant magnetochiral effects by combining resonances in the metamolecule. Microwave transmission patters through magnetochiral and chiral metamaterials were measured. Toward a higher frequency, the metamolecule was miniaturized in the presence of ferromagnetic resonance in a cavity and coplanar waveguide. Application of generalized magneto-optical ellipsometry for microwaves was studied. This work paves the way to the realization of synthetic gauge fields for electromagnetic waves, and to development of meta-condensed-matter physics using metamaterials.
