Abstract

The use of negative-index materials is highly efficient for tailoring the spectral dispersion properties of a quarter-wavelength Bragg mirror and for obtaining resonant behavior of a multilayer Fabry–Perot cavity over a very large spectral range. An optimization method is proposed and validated on some first promising devices.
