Perfect cylindrical lenses.

چکیده
A slab of negatively refracting material is known to focus light and if 1 n = the focussing will be perfect, producing an image which is an exact replica of the object. Magnifying the image requires a new design concept in which the surface of the negatively refracting lens is curved. Here we show how a hollow cylinder of material can be designed to magnify an image but otherwise with the same perfection as the original lens. Curvature requires that epsilon and mu are now a function of position.

Designing the optimal Fresnel lenses by using Zemax software
In this paper, the optimal Fresnel lenses are designed by Zemax software.The fundamental problem of the Fresnel lenses is the beam divergence, which wasresolved by decreeing the output stain diameter on the image plane. For this purpose,two types of radial and cylindrical Fresnel lenses are simulated with different groovesusing Global and Hammer optimization methods. The minimum output stain di...
متن کاملDesign of dynamically adjustable anamorphic fractional transformer Fourier
We form optical systems by using only free space portions and cylindrical lenses, and consider these systems as anamorphic fractional Fourier transformers. We dynamically adjust the transform order, scale factor and field curvature of both orthogonal dimensions of anamorphic fractional Fourier transformation by just changing the focal lengths of cylindrical lenses used in the proposed setups. H...
متن کاملSet of two orthogonal adaptive cylindrical lenses in a monolith elastomer device.
A microfluidic device that operates as a set of two adaptive cylindrical lenses focusing light along two orthogonal axes is designed, fabricated and characterized. The device is made out of a silicon elastomer, polydimethylsiloxane, using soft lithography, and consists of a few chambers separated by flexible membranes and filled with liquids of different refractive indices. The cylindrical lens...
متن کاملFinite frequency external cloaking with complementary bianisotropic media.
We investigate the twofold functionality of a cylindrical shell consisting of a negatively refracting heterogeneous bianisotropic (NRHB) medium deduced from geometric transforms. The numerical simulations indicate that the shell enhances their scattering by a perfect electric conducting (PEC) core, whereas it considerably reduces the scattering of electromagnetic waves by closely located object...
متن کاملOn Perfect Lenses and Nihility
The canonical problem of a perfect lens with linear bianisotropic materials is formulated. Its solution is shown to be directly connected with the concept of nihility, the electromagnetic nilpotent. Perfect lenses as well as nihility remain unrealizable.
