Highly tunable refractive index visible-light metasurface from block copolymer self-assembly

Wider control of the refractive index is desired for new optical applications. Here the authors manipulate block copolymer self-assembled nanopatterns via shrinkage in order to control the refractive index. They achieve an index above 3 over 1,000 nm bandwidth.
