Temporal Modulation of Bianisotropic Metasurfaces for Unidirectional Wave Amplification

Xiaoqiang Wang, Mohammad Sajjad Mirmoosa

Nonreciprocity in time-modulated metasurfaces is normally achieved only when it is combined with with space modulation, using at least two time-varying elements located at different positions in space. In this talk, we present the idea of time-modulated bi ...
