  • Abstract
    In this paper we introduce a new design for the magnifying superlens and demonstrate it in experiments. Our design has some common features with the recently proposed "optical hyperlens", "metamaterial crystal lens", and the plasmon-assisted microscopy technique. The internal structure of the magnifying superlens consists of concentric rings of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) deposited on a gold film surface.
