  Recent theoretical and experimental studies have shown that imaging with
resolution well beyond the diffraction limit can be obtained with so-called
superlenses. Images formed by such superlenses are, however, in the near field
only, or a fraction of wavelength away from the lens. In this paper, we propose
a far-field superlens (FSL) device which is composed of a planar superlens with
periodical corrugation. We show in theory that when an object is placed in
close proximity of such a FSL, a unique image can be formed in far-field. As an
example, we demonstrate numerically that images of 40 nm lines with a 30 nm gap
can be obtained from far-field data with properly designed FSL working at 376nm
wavelength.
