Dielectric meta-atom with tunable resonant frequency temperature coefficient

Abstract In this paper, we present a proof-of-concept of a new approach to achieving tailored resonant frequency temperature coefficients in dielectric meta-atoms. The technique involves introducing a thermally expanding or contracting material joining the active high permittivity dielectric absorbe...
