Abstract

The experimental and theoretical demonstration of a single-beam negative refraction and a superlensing effect in 2D photonic crystals was reported. As such, negative refraction was observed for the incidence angles of >20°. This broad angle range was used to demonstrate the superlensing effect, where the electromagnetic waves emitted from a point source were focused on the other side of the PC.
