Abstract
We propose a graphene hyperlens for the terahertz (THz) range. We employ and numerically examine a structured graphene-dielectric multilayered stack that is an analogue of a metallic wire medium. As an example of the graphene hyperlens in action we demonstrate an imaging of two point sources separated with distance . An advantage of such a hyperlens as compared to a metallic one is the tunability of its properties by changing the chemical potential of graphene. We also propose a method to retrieve the hyperbolic dispersion, check the effective medium approximation and retrieve the effective permittivity tensor.
