Study of perfect imaging by coupled negative refractive index lenses using WCIP method

We studied the optical properties and the behavior of two two-dimensional coupled lenses which have a negative refractive index. The WCIP (Wave Concept Iterative Procedure) method is used to calculate the field distribution through the total circuit. The results of simulation prove the aptitude of WCIP method to study several devices by their equivalent transmission line models based on the lumped elements L and C such as that presented in this paper.
