Research paperExperimental CharacterizationNatural Hyperbolicity of Hexagonal Boron Nitride in the Deep UltravioletBongjun Choi, Jason Lynch, Wangleong Chen, Seong-Joon Jeon et al.2025·10.1038/s41467-026-69536-4·arXiv:2507.13271AbstractUsing imaging spectroscopic ellipsometry, the paper reports deep-ultraviolet excitonic optical response and natural hyperbolic dispersion in exfoliated hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). The authors resolve in-plane and out-of-plane dielectric functions down to 190 nm, identify a type-II hyperbolic window in the DUV, and connect the hyperbolicity to strong anisotropic exciton resonances. Raman spectroscopy is used to assess sample quality.Read more
