Abstract

The radial impedance expressions utilized to match all boundaries of the perfect lens are presented. Moreover, the voltage distribution formulas can be used for the design of an equivalent infinite slab lens system, which is simulated using two- dimensional loaded L, C transmission line network for negative- refractive-index metamaterial and voltage generators along with the boundaries in interface region. Simulations for equivalent infinite slab lens system are carried out. The results for the voltage phase and amplitude distributions in the perfect equivalent infinite slab lens system with the properties of negative refraction and focusing demonstrate excellent cylindrical waves.
