NIST technique could make sub-wavelength images at radio frequencies
Washington DC (SPX) Jun 23, 2014
Imaging and mapping of electric fields at radio frequencies (RF)(1) currently requires the use of metallic structures such as dipoles, probes and reference antennas. To make such measurements efficiently, the size of these structures needs to be on the order of the wavelength of the RF fields to be mapped. This poses practical limitations on the smallest features that can be measured. New theoretical and experimental work by researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) ... read more
