Impact of filling ratio on subwavelength optical imaging with two   different geometries
  Metallic nano-structured lens has the potential applications of transporting subwavelength imaging information and it is achieved by manipulating the length of the nanorod and the periodicity of the rod array. In this paper, we demonstrate the impact of filling ratio on the subwavelength imaging capabilities of such a lens. Through full-wave electromagnetic simulation, we have demonstrated that the imaging performance of silver (Ag) nanorod array does not only depend on the length and periodicity but also on the filling ratios or the radius of the wire medium. We have investigated two different geometries for nanorod e.g., cylindrical and triangular rod and examined their performance for different filling ratios.
