Abstract :
We present new types of focusing devices consisting of metallic nanoslits with proof-of-concept experiments. Polarization-selective nanoslit lenses can focus or defocus linearly polarized light depending on the incident polarization. The interference peak from double slits inside a strongly anisotropic medium becomes sub-wavelength. We also present our work on scattering from a strongly anisotropic nanoparticle.
