infrared wavefront: odyssey [particle simulation]

Um tiquinho de Física on Instagram: "This video simulates a plane wave interacting with blocks made of a metamaterial-type substance with a gradient-index profile. Unlike solid barriers that reflect energy, these blocks allow the wave to pass through while locally altering its velocity. Since the wave speed (c) varies continuously within the blocks, it triggers the phenomenon of continuous refraction. This causes the wavefront to bend and shift its direction of propagation as it traverses the ma
