Scalable variable-index elasto-optic metamaterials for macroscopic optical components and devices

Large-scale graded-index metamaterial devices are difficult to fabricate owing to limitations of typical micro- and nanofabrication approaches. Here, Shinet al. demonstrate millimetre-scale transformation elements based on elasto-optic metamaterials made from aerogels.
