Negative refraction by a planar Ag/SiO2 multilayer at ultraviolet wavelength to the limit of silver

For planar structured hyperbolic metamaterial, the shortest wavelength achievable for negative refraction is often limited by dielectric layers, which are usually wide band gap semiconductors that absorb light strongly at wavelength shorter than their absorption edge. Here we proposed that using SiO...
