摘要
Subwavelength electromagnetic focusing by a negative refractive index slab is shown to occur in a full wave numerical simulation of a causal, physically realizable negative index material. Limitations on the observability of this effect in simulations and experiments are discussed. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.
