A bi-dimensional compressed Luneburg lens antenna for miniaturization based on transformation optics
Transformed Luneburg lens has been widely employed to provide aberration-free imaging and high-gain antenna system, but whose focal plane and beam scanning range decrease correspondingly. In this paper, a two-dimensional compressed elliptical cylindrical

Flattened structural Luneburg lens for broadband beamforming [PDF]
A conventional structural Luneburg lens is a symmetric circular gradient-index lens with refractive indices decreasing from the centre along the radial direction. In this paper, a flattened structural Luneburg lens (FSLL) based on structural thickness variations is designed by using the quasi-conformal transformation technique.

Broadband ultra-long acoustic jet based on double-foci Luneburg lens [PDF]
In this paper, a gradient index acoustic metamaterial is proposed based on the concept of the optical modified generalized Luneburg lens (MGLL). With the MGLL, double-foci and high energy density between the two foci can be achieved, which enables the ...
