3-Dimensional Isotropic Metamaterials Lens(1001-124)

Triton Systems’ team proposes to identify and develop a metamaterials-based lenses system capable of imaging beyond the diffraction limit in the visible spectrum. The use of negative index of refraction to resolve features beyond the diffraction index limit has been demonstrated for wavelengths outside of the visible. Triton’s team will expand the theory and experimentally demonstrate metamaterials-based systems that will allow far-field resolution of features beyond the diffraction limit in the visible spectrum. Phase I will demonstrate the theoretical capability supported by experimental results, while in Phase II the lens system will be further refined and developed to show an array element.
