We report on the fabrication and optical characterization of hyperbolic nanoparticles on a transparent substrate. These nanoparticles enable a separation of ohmic and radiative channels in the visible and near-infrared frequency ranges. The presented architecture opens the pathway towards novel routes to exploit the light to energy conversion channels beyond what is offered by current plasmon-based nanostructures, possibly enabling applications spanning from thermal emission manipulation, theragnostic nano-devices, optical trapping and nano-manipulation, non-linear optical properties, plasmonenhanced molecular spectroscopy, photovoltaics and solar-water treatments, as well as heat-assisted ultra-dense and ultrafast magnetic recording. |
