摘要

In the recent years, many experimental and theoretical achievements have shown that metamaterials can simulate homogeneous materials with optical index less than unity or even negative. For example, a dielectric photonic crystal, used at the edge of a band gap, can generate phenomena of ultra-refraction (positive index less than unity) or negative refraction (negative index). Some applications of these phenomena will be shown, specially the design of directive antenna in the microwaves region. More recently, experimental and theoretical studies have been published on left-handed materials. These materials, which have a permittivity and a permeability equal to -1, have been the subject of controversies about their alleged property of making perfect lenses. It will be shown that such a perfect lens cannot exist. However, this kind of meta-material could be used for making better lenses than the best classical ones, a fact which could explain some experimental results. The vital influence of the size of the elementary cell on the performance of the lens will be pointed out. Finally, it will be shown that surprisingly, a left-handed material can be interpreted as a means to go through the mirror, as Alice in the novel of Lewis Carroll...
