Highly Strained Compliant Optical Metamaterials with Large Frequency Tunability [PDF]
Metamaterial designs are typically limited to operation over a narrow bandwidth dictated by the resonant line width. Here we report a compliant metamaterial with tunability of Δλ ~ 400 nm, greater than the resonant line width at optical frequencies ...
