Abstract
An embodiment according to the invention provides an optical filter that combines narrow spectral bandwidth and high rejection of out-of-band radiation with a wide acceptance angle. These filters are based on the nanoscale engineering of materials ('metamaterials') that possess predefined birefringence determined by a combination of their geometry and material composition. These metamaterials are combined into a functional optical filter that can exhibit true zero crossing, with acceptance angle effectively decoupled from bandwidth, at practically any wavelength of interest.
