Abstract

We introduce a new class of metalens : the magnetic metalens which is composed of planar periodic array of split ring resonators (SRR). The metalens effect is mainly due to magnetic coupling between SRRs. For the first time this principle has been applied to image a complex mu-shaped subwavelength structure with a resolution lower than 1/15 of a wavelength.
