Abstract :
We present our recent results on the design, fabrication and applications of flexible metamaterials in the visible and near infrared range. In particular, we demonstrate broad angle spectral filtering for lab-on-fibre applications, the realisation of metamaterials with epsilon-near-zero response and their dynamical tuning via all-optical methods.
