Switching near-IR metamaterial response with electrically-controlled liquid crystals
Switching near-IR metamaterial response with electrically-controlled liquid crystals
We experimentally demonstrate efficient electrical modulation and switching of the near-IR response of plasmonic metamaterials loaded with liquid crystals. That has been achieved by controlling micro-scale volume and (for the first time) nano-scale in-plane ordering of liquid crystals in the resulting hybrid metamaterial systems.

Abstract
We experimentally demonstrate efficient electrical modulation and switching of the near-IR response of plasmonic metamaterials loaded with liquid crystals. That has been achieved by controlling micro-scale volume and (for the first time) nano-scale in-plane ordering of liquid crystals in the resulting hybrid metamaterial systems.
