Abstract
We study the focusing of two-dimensional (2D) electromagnetic waves through a plane interface. Starting from the exact solution for the transmitted field due to an arbitrary three-dimensional (3D) incident wave, we derive solutions for focused 3D waves in the Kirchhoff approximation. Then we construct corresponding solutions for focused 2D electromagnetic waves and study in detail the focusing properties of a TM field numerically and analytically.
