Abstract

We report on the realization of free-standing all-dielectric metamaterials in a variety of ultra-thin, low-loss, high-index media. With sharply resonant optical properties in the near-IR (telecoms) wavelength range, nanoscale dimensions and mechanical Eigenfrequencies in the hundreds of MHz range such structures may be dynamically reconfigured by optical forces at low illumination intensities.
