Abstract
The cooperative electromagnetic interactions between discrete resonators have been widely used to modify the optical properties of metamaterials. Here we propose a general evolutionary approach for engineering these interactions in arbitrary networks of resonators. To illustrate the performances of this approach, we designed by genetic algorithm, an almost perfect broadband absorber in the visible range made with a simple binary array of metallic nanoparticles.
