| contents | Realizing non-reciprocal scattering and absorption from subwavelength elements has several applications across the electromagnetic frequency spectrum. Here we show that gyromagnetic cylindrical rods with subwavelength dimensions exhibit strong absorption with diminished scattering in a narrow frequency band for an incident plane wave. We show that the strong narrowband absorption depends on the photonic-spin of the incident wave. Further, it is shown that this spin-dependent absorption leads to non-reciprocal reflection and absorption characteristics of an array of gyromagnetic cylinders suspended over a reflecting plane. The theoretical claims of strong spin-dependent absorption in subwavelength elements is validated by experimentally demonstrating nonreciprocal absorption and transmission from a single gyromagnetic rod placed in a substrate integrated waveguide. |
