We present a gradient-index (GRIN) metamaterial based on an array of annular slots. The structure allows a large variation of the effective refractive index under normal-to-plane incidence and thus enables the construction of GRIN devices…

Conventional optical lenses have been used to focus light from outside without disturbing the medium. The focused spot size is proportional to the focal distance in a conventional lens, resulting in a tradeoff between depth of penetration…

Hyperbolic topological transitions refer to the transformation of is isofrequency contours in hyperbolic materials from one topology (e.g., hyperbolic) to another (e.g., elliptical or a different hyperbolic topology). However, current…
