Titanium-Based Metasurfaces for Optoelectronics.

We report on the fabrication method that enables the development of transparent conductive metasurfaces capable of the resonant absorption of light in specific frequency bands. The approach is based on embedding linear sp-carbon chains and metallic nanoparticles in a porous matrix of titanium dioxide (TiO). We develop a blading technique for the formation of a periodical grating of TiO microtubes at the macroscale.
