We present the simulation, and fabrication of an optical metamaterial filter. It consists of two silver layers and one SU-8 layer perforated with periodic sub-wavelength holes arrays which are prepared by optical lithography. Measured results indicate that a broad pass-band with over 96% transmittance across 90.0-105.0 THz frequency range can be obtained. Effective permeability, permittivity, and impedance are retrieved by applying S parameter retrieval method. These retrieved effective parameters show that the fabricated metamaterial filter can be modulated from a double negative material to a normal material in pass-band. Real parts of effective permeability and permittivity follow a similar slope results in well-matched impedance to free space, which leads to the broad pass-band. Furthermore, effects of nano-hole sidewall length (w2) and thickness of dielectric layer (h1) are experimental surveyed. The pass-band is expanded with w2 increasing or h1 reducing due to the reduced of strength of electromagnetic resonance. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
