Abstract

We theoretically and experimentally studied resonance-induced hyperbolic metasurfaces, proving that it is an efficient way to introduce Fano-resonance and decreasethe Q-factor in our system in order to create hyperbolic iso-frequency contours (IFCs) along two orthogonal directions. The metasurface with a continuous topological transition for such IFCs has been designed and experimentally implemented. In particular, two independent selfcollimation frequencies corresponding to the transition frequencies in orthogonal directions. As a consequence, we experimentally demonstrated that the metasurface can function as a position- sensor by utilizing the bidirectional hyperbolic surface waves, opening a new avenue for position-sensing.
