  • Abstract
    We use fibre-drawing methods to make large quantities of indium wire arrays embedded in polymer. By controlling the size and spacing of the wires in the arrays, we fabricate electric metamaterials with plasma frequencies in the THz through to the mid-IR. We also discuss the limitations of this process using the current choice of materials.
