Bringing the ‘perfect lens’ into focus by near-perfect compensation of losses without gain media

In this paper, the optical properties and imaging performance of a non-ideal Pendry’s negative index flat lens with a practical value for loss are studied. Analytical calculations of the optical properties of the lens are performed, and those results are used to further study the lens and correspond...
