Abstract
We demonstrate that a photonic structure consisting of materials with positive and negative dielectric permittivity can exhibit left-handedness. Examples of plasmonic (Ag) and phononic (SiC) building blocks will be used. SiC is also attractive for a near-field ”perfect” lens which dramatically enhances resolution of near-field imaging.
