Fabrication of Biaxial Hyperbolic Metamaterials with Oblique Angle Deposition
英文摘要：
We have demonstrated a versatile method for fabrication of biaxial hyperbolic metamaterials (HMMs) using layered structures consisting of titanium dioxide and copper. In order to enable the biaxial property, an oblique angle deposition technique is applied to deposit the dielectric layer in the form of columnar nanostructures. We have experimentally characterized the biaxial dispersion using variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements in the wavelength range 400nm to 900nm. A noticeable difference between the in-plane permittivity components is observed which has proved to be immune from fabrication errors. A biaxial HMM fabricated according to our method provides dual epsilon-near-zero properties at visible wavelengths which are separated over a bandwidth of 7nm. The experimental characterization results of the fabricated biaxial HMM have been in good agreement with the predictions of effective medium approximation. Our proposed method may be beneficial to accelerate the realization of new devices in nanophotonics applications.
