Very High Numerical Aperture Fibers [PDF]
Air-silica microstructured fibers are designed and fabricated to yield numerical aperture (NA) greater than 0.9. A model is presented which accurately predicts the structural parameters required in order to realize high NAs. Such fibers have application in lasers and laser-induced-fluorescence systems.

A Metalens with a Near-Unity Numerical Aperture [PDF]
The numerical aperture (NA) of a lens determines its ability to focus light and its resolving capability. Having a large NA is a very desirable quality for applications requiring small light-matter interaction volumes or large angular collections. Traditionally, a large NA lens based on light refraction requires precision bulk optics that ends up being

Minimal focal spot obtained by focusing circularly polarized light
In this paper, using the Richards-Wolf equations, we analyze focusing circularly polarized light with flat diffractive lenses. It is shown that as the numerical aperture of the lens increases, the size of the focal spot first decreases and then begins to
