Sub-diffraction thin-film sensing with planar terahertz metamaterials.
Planar metamaterials consisting of subwavelength resonators have been recently proposed for thin dielectric film sensing in the terahertz frequency range. Although the thickness of the dielectric film can be very small compared with the wavelength, the required area of sensed material is still determined by the diffraction-limited spot size of the terahertz beam excitation. In this article, ter...
متن کاملSub-diffraction-limited optical imaging with a silver superlens.
Recent theory has predicted a superlens that is capable of producing sub-diffraction-limited images. This superlens would allow the recovery of evanescent waves in an image via the excitation of surface plasmons. Using silver as a natural optical superlens, we demonstrated sub-diffraction-limited imaging with 60-nanometer half-pitch resolution, or one-sixth of the illumination wavelength. By pr...
متن کاملDiffraction-limited performance of flat-substrate reflective imaging gratings patterned by DUV photolithography.
We report on the first demonstration of flat substrate imaging gratings fabricated by deep ultraviolet (DUV) photoreduction lithography, which uniquely offers sub-100-nm resolution and spatial coherence over centimeter scales. Reflective focusing gratings, designed according to holographic principle, were fabricated on 300-mm silicon wafers by immersion DUV lithography. Spatial coherence of the...
متن کاملProperties of sub-diffraction limited focusing by optical phase conjugation.
Recent work has demonstrated sub-diffraction limited focusing using time-reversal mirrors and sources in scattering media at microwave frequencies. We numerically investigate the possibility of observing analogous effects in the optical domain using small cylindrical scatterers of realistic dielectric materials combined with an enclosing optical phase conjugate mirror in two-dimensional geometr...
متن کاملA route to sub-diffraction-limited CARS Microscopy.
We theoretically investigate a scheme to obtain sub-diffraction-limited resolution in coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy. We find using density matrix calculations that the rise of vibrational (Raman) coherence can be strongly suppressed, and thereby the emission of CARS signals can be significantly reduced, when pre-populating the corresponding vibrational state through an...
