February 2020: "Electromagnetic Perspectives"
Christophe Caloz launches in the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine the new column "Electromagnetic Perspectives", and inaugurates it with a paper entitled "Electromagnetic Chirality, Part I: the Microscopic Perspective", which will be followed by "Electromagnetic Chirality, Part II: the Macroscopic Perspective" in the next issue of the journal.

"Electromagnetic Perspectives", highlighted in the editorial of the first 2020 issue of the magazine, intends to disseminate knowledge about electromagnetics and electrodynamics via paths that deviate from common routes and hence demystify concepts reputed of difficult access, by emphasizing historical contextualization, maximal simplification, pedagogical creativity and first-principle methodology.

The two-part paper "Electromagnetic Chirality", co-authored by Ari Sihvola, presents a bottom-up description of electromagnetic chirality, discovered 200 years ago by Arago and Biot and recently revived with metamaterials, from the microscopic level, characterized by particle polarizabilities, to the macroscopic level, characterized by medium susceptibilities.

January 2020: New Era of Magnetless Nonreciprocity
January 2020: New Era of Magnetless Nonreciprocity
Our group introduced the concept of magnetless nonreciprocal metamaterials ten years ago [T. Kodera, D. L. Sounas, and C. Caloz, Appl. Phys. Lett., 2011]. Since then, this research topic has exploded in both the engineering and physics communities, with hundreds of related papers being published every month, including our critical perspective in [C. Caloz et. al, Phys. Rev. Appl., 2018].

The very recent conjunction of magnetless nonreciprocity and metasurface technologies has opened up a new research era where magnetless nonreciprocity is being combined with temporal and spatial wave spectra transformations.

An extension of this work has been recently published as a research article in Advanced Photonics under the title "Uniform-Velocity Spacetime Crystals". This article (26 pages) is expected to become a reference in the emerging field of spacetime metamaterials.
