- Current traditional microlens arrays used for 3D imaging suffer from high light losses, low resolution, cannot determine the depth in third dimensions, and have limited angle of view. This joint work with Southampton University Nanofabrication Center, for the first time, demonstrates a proof of concept of metamaterial superlens for light field imaging at visible wavelength. This array of superlenses performs 3D image transformations without using traditional input microlens array, transfer screen and output microlens array. This superlens array is able to determine the depth in 3rd dimension, hence 3D imaging resolution unforeseen previously.
