Abstract  A new phase-correction method in a realistic loss superlens imaging system is theoretically predicted. The image resolution is enhanced using the near-field active phase-correction method. Resolvable separation between two slits has been significantly improved to λ/20 for the symmetrical superlens system and λ/12 for unsymmetrical system.
Keywords:  metamaterials      optical transfer functions      super resolution
