Dielectric microspheres covered with metallic nanorods for perfect lensing and cloaking applications

Photonic nanostructures made of a dielectric sphere covered with many metallic particles are a basic building block for optical metamaterials with a magnetic response. To tune the properties of the system spheres covered with metallic nanorods of variable aspect ratio. Full-wave optical simulations using JCMsuite support the spectroscopic characterization.
