Photonic metamaterials by direct laser writing and silver chemical vapor deposition

We fabricate planar magnetic photonic metamaterials via direct laser writing and silver chemical vapor deposition, an approach, which is also suitable for three-dimensional structures. Retrieval of the effective metamaterial parameters reveals the importance of bi-anisotropy.
