Optical characterization of silver nano-wire metamaterials

Silver nanowires with diameters of a few tens of nanometers have gained a lot interest recently. An array of such nanowires within a dielectric host matrix are considered as an indefinite anisotropic metamaterial. These metamaterials exhibit negative refraction due to hyperbolic dispersion character...
