Fig. 1. (a) Model of the GPC flat lens. The lattice spacing $a_{y i}$ (the subscript $i$ takes the value from 1 to 19) is decreased along the positive and negative directions of the Y axis; the lattice spacing $a_{x}$ is $a$ , and it stays the same along the X direction. (b) Half of the structure surrounded by the rectangular area with the blue dashed line in (a).
