Abstract :
We present recent progress in fiber-based metamaterials. We have drawn fibers containing either sub-wavelength magnetic resonators or wire media, operating up to mid-infrared frequencies. This has led to the first fiber-based metamaterial hyperlenses capable of imaging and focusing well below the diffraction limit over optically long distances, at terahertz frequencies.
