A hyperbolic metamaterial (MM) based on anisotropic Mie-type resonance is theoretically and experimentally demonstrated in microwave range. Based on the shape-dependent Mie-type resonance, metamaterials with indefinite permeability or permittivity parameters are designed by tailoring the isotropic particle into an anisotropic one. The flat lens consisting of anisotropic dielectric resonators has been designed, fabricated and tested. The experimental observation of refocusing and a plane wave with ominidirectional radiation directly verify the predicted properties, which confirm the potential application in negative index material and superlens. This work will also help to develop all-dielectric anisotropic MM devices such as 3D spatial power combination, cloak, and electromagnetic wave converter, etc.
