Abstract :
Hyperbolic metamaterials hold great promise to enable a family of novel, metamaterial-inspired electromagnetic devices that can become essential components of future microwave, infrared and optical circuits. These devices may realize lenses overcoming the diffraction limit, exhibit negative refraction, achieve perfect absorption and obtain broadband super-Planckian thermal emission in different frequency ranges.
