Title: Breaking optical diffraction limitation using optical Hybrid-Super-Hyperlens with radially polarized light. Author: Cheng BH, Lan YC, Tsai DP. Journal: Opt Express; 2013 Jun 17; 21(12):14898-906. PubMed ID: 23787678. Abstract: We propose and analyze an innovative device called "Hybrid-Super-Hyperlens". This lens is made of two hyperbolic metamaterials with different signs in their dielectric tensor and different isofrequency dispersion curves. The ability of the proposed lens to break the optical diffraction limit is demonstrated using numerical simulations (with the resolution power of about λ/6). Both a pair of nano-slits and a nano-ring can be imaged and resolved by the proposed lens using the radially polarized light source. Such a lens has great potential applications in photolithography and real-time nanoscale imaging.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
