Abstract

A metamaterial layer with parameters ɛ and μ close to minus unity (a Veselago lens) is considered. The 2D problem of excitation of this layer by a point source is studied. Under the assumption that the thickness of the layer is much smaller than the wavelength, explicit analytic expressions for the field are obtained. Field patterns in various sections of the structure are presented.
