A planar magneto-inductive lens for three-dimensional subwavelength imaging

Manuel J. Freire, Ricardo Marques

英文摘要:

A planar near-field magnetoinductive lens operating in the microwave range is presented. The proposed device consists of two parallel planar arrays of metallic broadside coupled (BC-) split ring resonators (SRRs), or BC-SRRs. Power coming from a point-like source located in front of the lens is focused into a receiver located in free space behind the device. This focus is clearly removed from the back side of the lens, and has a size which is an order of magnitude smaller than the free space wavelength of the incoming radiation. The imaging properties of the device mainly relies on the excitation of magnetoinductive surface waves on the BC-SRR arrays. By simply scaling the BC-SRRs size, as well as the arrays periodicity, the frequency of operation of the device can be tuned over a wide frequency range. Thus the proposed design is potentially useful for many applications ranging from megahertzs to terahertzs.
