Abstract

Self-aligned liquid crystals containing randomly dispersed nanoparticles are proposed to realise hyperbolic metamaterials at visible spectrum. Opposite signs for anisotropic permittivity tensors originated from the scattering of metallic nanoparticles in liquid crystals are achieved. Tunable effective wavelength properties are also demonstrated by choosing dielectric-metal core-shell nanoparticles.
