Tunable broadband hyperbolic light dispersion in metal diborides.

The naturally hyperbolic materials that conquer the limitations of artificially structured hyperbolic metamaterials are promising candidates for the emerging devices based on light. However, the variety of natural hyperbolic materials and their hyperbolic frequency regime are presently limited. Here, on the basis of first-principles calculations, we demonstrated a family of natural hyperbolic materials, graphite-like metal diborides, with a broadband hyperbolic region from near-IR (∼2.5µm) to the ultraviolet regime (∼248 nm). The operating hyperbolic window and negative refraction can be effectively modulated by extracting electrons from the materials, offering a promising strategy for regulating the optical properties.
