  • Abstract
    Near-infrared epsilon-near-zero metamaterial slabs based on Ag-Ge multilayers are experimentally demonstrated and numerically analyzed. A post-annealing process and multilayer grating structures are introduced to reduce the optical loss and also tune the epsilon-near-zero wavelength.
