Abstract
We propose a scheme for subwavelength electromagnetic diode by employing the nonreciprocal electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in metamaterials. One-way response, with 17.36 dB transmission contrast and −4.4 dBm operating power, is conceptually demonstrated in a microwave waveguide system with asymmetric absorption and a varactor as the nonlinear medium inclusion. Such low-threshold and high-contrast transmission diode action comes from the EIT mechanism, which possesses narrower and sharper features than the Lorentz resonance. This mechanism will be useful for all-optical signal processing with advanced materials.
