Enhanced Transmission in Rolled-up Hyperlenses utilizing Fabry-Pe\'rot Resonances

We experimentally demonstrate that the transmission though rolled-up metal/semiconductor hyperlenses can be enhanced at desired frequencies utilizing Fabry-P\'erot resonances. By means of finite difference time domain simulations we prove that hyperlensing occurs at frequencies of high transmission.Comment: 3 pages, 3 figure

Gain in Three-Dimensional Metamaterials utilizing Semiconductor Quantum Structures

We demonstrate gain in a three-dimensional metal/semiconductor metamaterial by the integration of optically active semiconductor quantum structures. The rolling-up of a metallic structure on top of strained semiconductor layers containing a quantum well allows us to achieve a three-dimensional superlattice consisting of alternating layers of lossy metallic and amplifying gain material. We show that the transmission through the superlattice can be enhanced by exciting the quantum well optically under both pulsed or continuous wave excitation. This points out that our structures can be used as a starting point for arbitrary three-dimensional metamaterials including gain
