Toroidal moments in electromagnetic metamaterials
Toroidal moments in electromagnetic metamaterials
We report the development of a new type of metamaterials supporting resonantly induced toroidal moments, the importance of which has recently been recognized in solid state, nuclear and particle physics. Our aim is to create a classical electrodynamic system, such as toroidal metamaterial [1], that enhances the elusive toroidal moment and suppresses the background of conventional multipole excitations, thus allowing the direct observation of its contribution to optical activity, anisotropy, asymmetric transmission and the formation of negative index bands.

Abstract
We report the development of a new type of metamaterials supporting resonantly induced toroidal moments, the importance of which has recently been recognized in solid state, nuclear and particle physics. Our aim is to create a classical electrodynamic system, such as toroidal metamaterial [1], that enhances the elusive toroidal moment and suppresses the background of conventional multipole excitations, thus allowing the direct observation of its contribution to optical activity, anisotropy, asymmetric transmission and the formation of negative index bands.
