“…Besides the applications mentioned above, in recent years, there are many other versatile MNF-based photonic devices or techniques that have been reported, ranging from optical filters [390,[580][581][582] , couplers [453,454,[583][584][585][586] , modulators [345,347,[587][588][589][590][591] , optical autocorrelators [326][327][328][329] , and spectrometers [592] to far-field subwavelength focusing [593] and super-resolution imaging [594] . For example, in 2009 Wang et al proposed to focus optical beams with subwavelength resolution in the far field using an MNF array [593] .…”
