description | This paper presents a theoretical and experimental study of the effect of ballistic electrons on the optical response of MIM (Metal-Insulator-Metal) like hyperbolic metamaterial structures. The simulated model using standard parameters and the experimental optical transmission show a 20% peak difference due to the presence of ballistic transport in the metal. A semi-analytic approximation based on the Drude's model is used for accurately predicting the optical response of the hyperbolic substrate and plasmon damping in the fabricated metasurfaces. |
