A superlens is a lens which is capable of subwavelength imaging, allowing for magnification of near field rays. Conventional lenses have a resolution on the order of one wavelength due to …

Aug 12, 2016 · A new "superlens" is so powerful that it could help researchers zero in on germs that were too small for microscopes to spot until now, according to a new study.

Artificially engineered metamaterials now offer the possibility of building a superlens that overcomes this limit. We review the physics of such superlenses and the theoretical and …

now offer the possibility of building a superlens that overcomes this limit. We review the physics of such superlenses and the theoretical and experimental progress in this rapidly developing field.

Oct 18, 2023 · Researchers have developed a potentially revolutionary superlens technique that once seemed impossible to see things four times smaller than even the most modern …

Jul 1, 2006 · Built from "metamaterials" with bizarre, controversial optical properties, a superlens could produce images that include details finer than the wavelength of light that is used

The virtual superlens circumvents losses by removing the need for materials. The evanescent fields are measured in air, rather than after a structured material, and the reversal of decay is …

Oct 31, 2018 · In this paper, a novel design for a metamaterial lens (superlens) based on a Photonic Crystal (PC) operating at visible wavelengths is reported. The proposed superlens …

Attempts at passing this barrier are numerous, and mostly used a technique that researchers have dubbed “superlensing”, which involves making custom lenses out of unique materials. …

Apr 22, 2005 · One of the most dramatic—and controversial —predictions to emerge from this activity was a speculation by Pendry that a thin negative-index film should function as a …
