Sumario:The phenomenon of anapole has attracted considerable attention in the field of metamaterials as a possible realization of radiationless objects. We comprehensively study this phenomenon in the cluster-based systems of dielectric particles by considering conditions of anapole manifestation in both single trimers of disk-shaped particles and metamaterial composed on such trimers. Our analytical approach is based on the multipole decomposition method and the secondary multipole decomposition technique. They allow us to associate the anapole with the multipole moments of the trimer and the separate multipole moments of its constitutive particles. The manifestation of anapole in a two-dimensional metamaterial (metasurface) is confirmed by checking the resonant states in the reflected field as well as from the electromagnetic near-field patterns obtained from the full-wave numerical simulation. It is demonstrated that the anapole excitation in trimers results in the polarization-independent suppression of reflection with the resonant enhancement of local electromagnetic fields in the metasurface. Finally, experimental verification of the theoretical results is presented and discussed.
