Abstract Optical metamaterials have presented an innovative method of manipulating light. Hyperbolic extremely high anisotropy with a hyperbolic dispersion relation. They are able to support high- k modes and exhibit density states which produce distinctive properties that been exploited in various applications, such as super-resolution imaging, negative refraction, enhanced emission control.
