  • Abstract
    Using a frustrated total internal reflection or light tunneling structure, where the barrier is composed of multiple layers involving metamaterials, we show that complete tunneling through this composite barrier can be applied to the realization of total transmission filters, whose transmittance curves, dependent on the wavelengths as well as incident directions or polarization states of light, have a flat-top shape.
