Mimicking the Cosmological Redshift with Time Dependent Transformation Optics

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference paper

Abstract

We apply the framework of transformation optics to mimic the cosmological redshift inside metamaterials and describe how a medium with well-defined time-dependent material parameters changes the optical frequency even though it supports linear electromagnetic waves.
