Dual subwavelength imaging based on two-dimensional photonic crystals
A focusing structure which can achieve negative refraction and dual subwavelength imaging is proposed, which is based on two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystal (PC) which consisting of air holes in silicon. The light radiated from a point source can form two images through a triangular PC. The transmittance of light is increased and the side spot at image2 is eliminated by adding the gratings on the sides of the PC. When the air slit of gratings is w=0.76a and the distance between gratings and PC is dg=0.1a, the minimum half-width of the image1 reaches 0.433λ, the maximum half-width of image2 reaches 0.842λ, which are both lower than incident wavelength. In addition, the PC realizes wide-spectrum dual subwavelength imaging when the incident wavelength varies from 3.19a to 3.26a. The position formulas between images and point source are also demonstrated. Based on the results, we propose a new confocal system based on PC that can achieve subwavelength imaging.
