Why Metamaterials? • Focusing performance • Matching • Compactness • Weight
Focusing PerformanceOptical Aberration Coefficients • Spherical • Coma • Astigmatism • Field curvature • Distortion Gaussian optical formulas describe ideal point focusing. Aberration coefficients describe the deviation of a focus from an ideal point.
