Abstract
We show that by using the recently emerged transformation optics, it is possible to design perfect lenses in new geometries with an imaging performance almost equivalent to the well studied perfect slab lens. In addition, the theory of transformation optics generalizes the complementary bilayer lenses to many other material compositions, including cases where passive or active obstacles are involved in the lens system.
