Analysis of Ag-superlens performances using spatial convolution formulation

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

It is shown that the spatial convolution formulation offers the advantage for direct analysis in the real space of the effects of system-object feature mismatches on the resulting image quality. Imaging systems of various layered Ag-poly(methyl methacrylate) configurations and a variety of square-slit objects were considered for the analysis. The results reveal how those feature mismatches affect the image quality and clarify the previously suggested possible advantage of using a layered Ag superlens over a single-Ag slab of the same total thickness. Those mismatches may eventually be quantified to allow the optimization of a superlens appropriate for imaging a certain object.
